While that's awesome and very much worth every penny I was thinking this style when I said light bar. Again, sorry for the confusion. View attachment 51462

I gotcha. If you do that, definitely post pics and how well it shines.

Thanks for posting this video! I found this lightbar rack a last week and for the life of me couldn't remember where I saw it! Just as I was ready to commit myself for fear of dreaming it all up, this showed up... Thanks again!!

Well, mine is all American made (WSI and Whelen) except the actuator but did give WSI some more profit. Guess it cost more to help support our own....

Do we really have to go down this road again? Let's keep it short and simple: buying American assembled products is not a boost on the economy when all of the components are imported at some stage. 3000+ for some lights that could be had for a few hundred is a huge waste.

Supporting small independent businesses that support our community and have awesome customer service however is awesome.

The lightbar rack and actuator was $1600 of it....just sayin.

One thing to keep in mind is that cost DOES directly relate to how much light you get down range. Take a look at the testing we did at TRR: http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f81/lighting-shootout-results-33574/

I think a lot of people (myself included) will make a decision based on the amount of times the light will be used. I might use it 4-5 times per year, so the cheap one will do.

Probably not what you are looking for, it is three 12" Whelens but blows away my Blackhawk 30" and 40" in the grill.

not sure if this thread is still current but we use lightbars like the one you've shown for our work trucks. We found a low cost alternative that we now have 4 of and have had no problems. check speedtechlights.com
