Roof light bars.

#1 Post by Bargrip » Sun Mar 21, 2021 8:08 pm

So was going to buy a light bar to hide the gap at front of roof rack,
Found this jeep one( yeah I know)
I personally think it will look ok on the 90...
Any thoughts?
Btw...the 90 will be coming with me to Burnaby when I move this summer :D

From the photo they look great!

Have you figured out how to get the cable up to the lights?

Hey Andy,
It does have a fancy grommet that I liberated from the jeep and I have a headlining so i could make a small hole and then seal the grommet with more silicone and as for mounting it I'm going to use aluminum rivnuts so it can be removed if needed.
thats the plan anyways..

Make sure you have covers for them. The police have been targeting roof mounted lights.

Yup. Here in BC also. Got me on a ramp going onto Hwy 1 in Abbotsford last fall. $100 and a bit fine and no way to fight it. B*stards.

You will need to find a good spot to mount switch and a relay. Are they LED or regular bulbs?

They are just regular glass 4" lights with adjustable angle and
With i think 9006 bulbs...
Made by Hella oddly enough..
I do have to find a spot for the relay..
And the illuminated switch too..

My switches and relays are in/behind the cigarette lighter/rear wiper switch surround. A bit of a bulge, but I need to repackage the birds nest of cables!

The toggle switches for my old lights were there, so it was the obvious choice...
