    So I love the look fo the NSV lightbar and really like the idea of not having to cut metal on my hood but I don't want to use their switch panel and I don't have any open switch blanks to put their single switch in. Has anyone come up with a creative way to either open up a switch spot or to find an alternate way to hand this without cutting up the dash? I have a 2021 limited 4x4

    Alot of them
    Cutting the hood was a piece of cake on mine. The NVS bar is weak for that price. 1K for 9,000 lumens is overrated lol.

    You could extend it to the center console, in front of storage compartment, people have extended rear window switch to same spot.

    You could always add a switch controller.

    I ordered a bunch of really nice switches to control new lighting and could not figure where to put them. My son says why don't you use a wireless controller. Me being of the old guy thinking, Really they make such things? I bought one and hooked it up. Best thing I have done in a long time. Lots of choices, check it out they are affordable and simple to install.

    Hmm not sure as it works for me. You can go directly to the 3rd gen marketplace link and see where they posted the WTB.
