    Glad you got your NSV lightbar. I know you were looking at it for awhile now. Did your bar come with the stobe or flash feature?

    I found covering your rig with snow and ice makes the problem go away

    If you have the 18 Tundra double check with @inferno_pro_satx. I think there is a small difference in wiring.

    I have a 2017 with the 2018 lights and there is a small change you have to make (info is all in this thread) but not sure if it's the same for a straight up 2018.

    Info may actually be in another thread that I started. Can't remember now lol.

    Anyone solved the gap issue? Did the washers work? Is there another fix? I now have the same issue...weird as I didn’t before. But it did just get into the 90’s for the first time. I emailed NSV as well so we’ll see what they say. 182D9228-6A4D-463E-B66C-276B0DD5FC3C.jpg0998F4F6-65BE-4EBC-9EDD-A0F5CDB038E9.jpg14FF9104-4CF7-4DB8-A9F1-B52FA0DD7936.jpg

    He is gonna tell you to take out the plastic supports but didnt solve my issue. The gap got slightly wider with this past warm weather.

    He told me to loosen the screws and see if that works. I’ll give it a shot but I don’t have much confidence that’s gonna do anything...only because I’ve had it on the truck 4 months without issues. But I’ll try here in the next couple days.

    What happened to this post:

    Scud, tinyt1553 replied to a thread you are watching at Toyota Tundra Forum.

    I got my NSV LED hood bulge in today! Disable emails from this thread
    [​IMG]



    anybody else notice that one of their drl (the two ends) lights on this thing is higher than the other side. My driver side, when broadcasting on my garage door is definitely higher and I get high beam flashed a lot because of it.



    I received an email with this post but never could find it in the tread. Anyway I have the same problem. My driver side is higher than the passenger side. I do not see any way to adjust this. Anyone else have this. I also have the gaps on each side of the hood bulge. Anyone get that figured out?

    Thanks, Mike

    Took out the plastic supports for the 2 ends, left the 2 in the middle. The gap is gone
