Ohh, not done yet. That customer, with the black truck, stopped by the shop the other day... check out what he's done now

He's still trying to find more places to mount some more Squadron Racers. (That lower 10" bar is an OnX6 Full Laser btw)

He should be able to hang some XL80’s underneath that bar, just spit ballin’.

Hi BD I recently bought and installed a S8 grille kit for my 2018. After installation I noticed that the passenger side of the light is about 1/4" lower.

What are your guys thoughts? I'd bet that the bracket wasn't bent ad the correct position.

Hi Blu808,

Sorry to hear there was some trouble with the install. Do you mind sending an email to our technical support representative, Matt? His email is [email protected]. He should be able to help out and determine what went wrong. Thank you.

That’s bad ass! You know the scene at the start of Back To The Future when Marty is turning on all the amplifiers for his guitar? That’s what I picture switching on all those lights feels like [emoji23]

Hey BD....

Have you thought about changing the S8 to bracket bolt to a SS hex cap head bolt? I have my S8 installed, but not wired yet. No way to adjust with the provided bolts without removing grill, but sure looks like you could with hex cap head and lock washer. Sure hope I got it aligned, but if I have to take it apart to adjust then going to try finding SS hex head and see if that works.

I was able to get a ratchet wrench on mine to loosen and aim mine.

I use a 1/4” drive socket+swivel adapter+4” extension connected to 1/4” driver to adjust. I can get to both sides by going through the grille. I think I took pictures in my s8 install thread.
