you could buy that rack and bolt it to your roof

Well, that might actually work, but I was thinking maybe some way to get an actuator like that and integrate into an existing type of mount. Not really wanting to drill a bunch of holes in my roof.

Baja Designs makes that type of actuator.

It probably wouldn't be terribly difficult to fab something up to the WSI or RPG "roll bar" style light bars that mount to the top of the bed rails. I even feel like WSI has already done this too.

Here's an ADD chase rack with a power actuated light bar:

I searched for hours trying to find something like that actuator, that is what I need right there. Just need to figure out how I want to utilize it.

ADD makes a chase rack with an actuator on the light bar.

That is more or less what I want. I'm hoping I can come up with something a bit more subtle though. :)

My custom built WSI rack just arrived Wednesday.

I'm waiting for the lights to show up before I wire it in, but my initial impression is that very positive. Well built and the light bar mount is very solid.
