LED Front Light Bars & Pods


Recommended Posts

Here is my 37" single in my SLT grill, I did have to trim some of the plastic on the sides to make the 37" fit, you would have to trim quite a bit to get a 40" in there.20140730_224029.jpg

Pictures of install? Specs on bar? Day shots of how the bar looks behind grille?

That high beams pattern doesn't look like factory projectors. What kind of headlight projectors do you have?

 

I don't know if you noticed, but your left headlight is higher than the right. The usual setting is opposite. The left should be set so it doesn't glare into oncoming traffic then the right is either set slightly higher or the same.

I'll have to get some pictures after work, I thought I had some but I can't find them. The led is a Mictuning http://amzn.com/B00D7JKM9K it puts off great light but the first time I drove in the rain it fogged up and had condensation in it for a couple of weeks, once it dries out really well I'm going to add some silicon around it. As far as I know the head lights are stock, I haven't done anything to them. The truck was a demo that the finance manager drove. I am starting to think my truck had some front end damage that was repaired by the dealership. When I was pulling the grill to put the light bar on I noticed a couple of screws missing on the driver side inner fender liner and the plastic where the 2 lower middle bolts of the grill, bolt to was broken.

Agreed! Can you post pictures from in the cab? Would a 40" fit?

 

I'll try and get some good night shots soon. A 40" could fit, but you'd need to cut out the blackout portions of the sides of the grill. It may also be more difficult to mount in the location I did.

 

How much light do you lose thought the grill? Looks to shine through pretty well but I'd be curious to see how bright it is

 

 

I'm sure I lose some, but with nearly 15,000 lumens it can lose a bit and still be bright as hell. However, the first time I mounted it I measured wrong putting it 1/2" inch lower so the centers of the LED's were lined up with the horizontal lines in the grill. I do think that had a noticeable affect so be sure and avoid that if you have this grill.

I have the Silverado LT honeycomb grill and just mounted a 20" bar behind that. Thinking that the grill is not going to play nice with it so I may have to get a new one soon.

Looks like you have similar setup to me minus the cubes for the fogs. How much light does the chrome grill kill? Also curious how you did your cubes it looks super clean

Lights are installed on my Denali - I need to make final adjustments but it will have to await until the weekend.
