if you have the 10a front I would go with the maximus 3 light bar mounts. I think they would be a little more secure for securing the led. They will fit a 20 in bar nicely. I was going to do this but got a deal on warn hid's and went with the mounts from maximus 3. Also how was it to install the Mopar hoop on the 10 a?

20" fits perfect. You might be able to squeeze a 22" our 23" on there, but I'd have to look. My bar only came with about 2' or wire on the end of it, so I had to get some wiring and a switch. You could buy a wiring harness, but its doubtful it will reach everywhere you need it to. I made my own with 12 or 14 gauge wire, don't remember for sure. As far as switch, I used a flush mount rocker switch with red led. You can use whatever switch you want. You will need a relay as well. I have a picture off the wiring diagram I used. If you want it I'll see if I can find it for you.

Depending on what you want out of the light is going to help you decide which route to go. I got the combo pattern LED bar, so I have great light in front, and up close/sides. But I still wanted something to really reach out a long ways, so I mounted the HID spots on my A pillars. Now I have the best of both worlds.

Guys, ended going with a 20inch Cree lightbar. However, this thing only comes with a few feet of wiring, nothing else. Is there a harness with a relay and whatnot tbat I can purchase that would make installation more professional???

I have purchased and just received this wiring kit from Superbrightleds,com for $20, to add some docking lights to my pontoon boat and it seems pretty good. I'm cutting the switch off and adding a factory boat switch instead, but using the rest of the harness. The harness is wired for 2 lights but you could just cut off one at the relay or just zip tie it together and out of the way for adding another light later maybe.
