    I have it and to me it’s the cheapest way to the warn warranty and customer service. It is made overseas, so be aware if that. I don’t use mine daily and I live in the south east, so it will do everything I will ever need it to do.

    Lots of shenanigans.
    Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too. Where did you buy yours from?

    You didn't have to relocate your control box, right?

    You will most likely have issues if you don’t have the Pro grill. Yep just 35’s. Already wishing they were 37s but now I have some more work to do.

    I purchased mine through a large wholesaler off of eBay in CA.

    I did not have to relocate the control box but be aware you can not access the plug for your controller so wireless is your only option. If that stops working you are SOL. @El Two showed me this accessory which I will be getting and running from the control box to an access point yet to be determined.

    Is it absolutely not possible or would a smaller or forced hand work to get it hooked up?

    Relocate the plug, not hard. Its 6 conductor, I had 8 conductor wire.

    Yes I was impatient and the paint wasn't hard :D its right in front of the washer bottle now.

    Let me do some research on that before I answer definitively.

    I am able to plug mine in. It’s not the easiest thing to do but does work. An extension like @java230 did would be the way to go if you are planning on frequent use.

    How are you guys mounting the extra lights on these, are you drilling the holes for mounting before or after powder coating? If it's after are you just painting the area you drilled out for the mounts?

    Or does this thing have mounting points all over for all these extra lights I see

    There are only mounts for the light bar and fog lights. You would need to drill any other hole to mount the light you want, preferably before powder coat.

    I drilled holes prior to mounting the bumper. This ultimately was not ideal. The back of the lights hit the grill once the bumper was installed and significant modification to the light mounting brackets was required. I did not want to drill additional holes in new PC.

    So mount the bumper raw, mount lights/drill holes, then take off to get powder coated? Sounds like a plan

    that's what I would do, if it did it over. The stock stuff comes of easy enough and you don't have to have the C4 bumper exactly in place. The other option is to go with a narrower light, like the LP9 or something of similar dimensions. I went with a slightly deeper light and contacted the grill by about 1/2" due to wider bracket and light. It's also not the end of the world to drill a few holes through PC. Just make sure to paint the exposed metal.

    If you haven't received your bumper yet, you could ask C4 to make the holes for whatever light that you plan on running.

    Love the concept fell inlove when I first saw them they have two models with different height bull bars or with out pricey as is, and don’t get all the light options you’ll rack up to thousands just get it blank n do it yourself still waiting for mine to come through

    They also pre-drilled my LP9's on request, I would just provide the dimensions of your light and I wouldn't see any issue with that.

    Yea now that I think about it I may just wait on the pre-drilling. You guys with those LP9's! Those are gonna cost more than the bumper did so I may look for other options (not Amazon though)

    You know this really pisses me off...they don't even ask if you want holes pre- drilled just if you want those lights. Of course I have the bumper drop shipped to the PC so now I can't really drill holes in advance...what a cluster.

    If they haven't shipped it yet, it may be worth asking them. I had to request the light holes as well as the light bar opening. They prob do it because not everyone wants to run LP9s. Guessing on this though.

    Wait it doesn’t come with a light bar opening if you don’t order the light bar with it?

    I've seen some bumpers without it, if you just ordered it they haven't worked on it yet. Just give them a call/ email with your order number and let them know what all you want.

    I may be wrong on it and the guy without the lightbar cutout might've special requested that.

    Ah ok, I'm assuming it comes with the fog light and light bar openings (i ordered the overland bumper not the hybrid) but I will email them to verify. It's too expensive of a purchase to not get right
