I was looking at buying the Baja Designs light bar with the mount that 4x4TruckLed's was making. The cost would be around $869 and I would assume plus tax and shipping and this it to go along with my Baja designs fog / corning / driving/spot lights i just got. I was having reservations about throwing almost another $1000 on something that could never be used on the street.
I found an inexpensive 30" lasfit light bar and im pretty happy with it. It took a all of about 15 min to mount and wire to my aux switch and the results impress me for now. We will see how long it holds up for.

Wow - I JUST installed a very similar light bar on mine. I had the same reservations about throwing $1,000+ on something I will not use all that often. What did you use to mount yours??

I went with an ultra-slim white/amber. So far I am impressed with the amount of light it throws - especially to the sides. It took me a bit to come up with a way to mount it using some different "stuff" I had lying around. The bar was $54.99 - yes - you read that correctly. I couldn't justify spending more than double that on the mounts that I have seen out there. ... Here are some pics on how it looks - no judging on the mounts - I know.

i Used the mounts that came with the $89 las fit light bar. I do have a smidge of camera blockage. Yours looks way slimmer mounted. What bar and mount did you use ? May need to switch it so I don’t have any blockage of camera.

Where are you seeing $1,000 for a light bar???

The Baja Designs S8 Bar w/Brackets is $869 shipped (no tax unless you are in NY)

https://www.4x4truckleds.com/kr-off-road-30-light-bar-bumper-mount-for-2021-ford-bronco/

You can save some $$ with the Diode Dynamics bar and then it's $425, shipped (which includes our USA made brackets).

Sure not $100 but still... $869 is expensive but you sure do get a lot for your money. And $425 is very reasonable (don't forget our kits are 100% bolt on and include the wiring harness which is pretty much plug and play)

I found an inexpensive 30" lasfit light bar and im pretty happy with it. It took a all of about 15 min to mount and wire to my aux switch and the results impress me for now. We will see how long it holds up for.

Dan,
The Oz-USA light bar is not Bronco specific. Did you wire to an auxiliary switch? Is it easy to switch between light modes? Did you have to drill any holes to mount it? I really like the different light modes.

Can you take a pic of the top view with the bracket to see how you secured it down? Thanks
