Has anyone mounted cube lights or light bar to the over rider on this bumper? Just curious if it has been done, what lights were used and what it looks like?

So I have the Venator, but I have the overrider from the Arcus (the round one). It fit with minor modifications. My original intent was to mount a pair of Diode Dynamics SSC2's to the underside of the bar. Upon doing the install, fishing the wires through given how the bar mounted ultimately looked like a huge PITA, and I didn't like the way that looked with my winch in there too. I ended up mounting the SSC2's on the bumper itself, near the edges of the overrider. Way easier, and honestly, I think it looks better that way too.

It was just two small holes for the mounting bolts for the SSC2's...for the wires, I actually just ran them up from the winch area and wrapped the wire with some nice flex-loom.

Are those short end caps custom made? The regular Venator ends come pretty close to my tires. A shorty kit might be something I'd like.

NVM, I found it. Stubby ends.

FWIW, I actually have both sets of end caps. They don't technically sell them separately, but I reached out to RR and asked if they'd sell me a set of the longer ones (I bought the stubby originally) just in case I ever got issues at state inspection or just wanted to change it up.

I have the arcus which uses a similar overrider. When I had the stamped overrider I simply drilled two holes thru the top to mount cubes. I actually hated the stamped overrider as it angled back toward the grill. I recently swapped it for the tube overrider which slants away from the grill. I used 2" tube clamps for lights on the overrider bar.
