    Hey friends. Trying to figure out how to mount this light bar in the front of my 2000 AC.

    Obviously there isn’t anything behind that opening that I can bracket it to. I was hoping I could just flip the brackets to the front of the light and bolt through the sides of the opening. That sets the bar way to far back.

    looking for bright ideas! Get it… I’m sorry…

    Hope I don’t need to fabricate some sort of custom bracket but that is probably what I’ll have to do. Bonus points if you can figure out how to put it in this spot without removing the whole fucking bumper.

    I've done this myself. Here's my thread on it.

    Yeah that bumper has to come off, not a difficult task though
