1 small question
How is it possible to show that kind of restraint?
ME: stuff would be unpacked, unwrapped, pre-assembled at an ABSOLUTE minimum.

Light bar ready. Minor issue with the mounting holes for one of the white lights but a trip to lowes in the morning will fix it

I wish i had taken pictures of the quality packing job that @Maximus-3 does on their products. there was ZERO issues during shipping and the boxes for the Sport Bar are pretty big. very happy with the ease of install.

there was a slight issue with two light holes not being tapped correctly but i was able to fix it with lock nuts and longer screws. they are super busy, so i didn't feel it was necessary to make a big deal about it.

i hope to get the lights hooked up this weekend - my son is graduating HS so I might be busy

I finally wired up my Sport bar. The red lights are tapped to the third brake light and the cargo lights are tapped to the bed lights. The tazer allows you to turn on cargo lights for 30 min by pressing unlock on the remote 3 times. Press lock to turn them off.

To hide the wires, I drilled two holes and used grommets. I will be filling the hole with silicone to keep water out.

I love the idea of running the wires through the tube. unfortunately, I fear mine may have exceeded the practical limits of any gromets. the addition of lights and antenna have made cable management a bit of a challenge.
