They do not come with the harness. I contacted Rigid as my intention is to mount 1 set in my fog light brackets. I was told I will need to order DTP2 Deutsch connectors off Amazon. These can be wired to an sPOD but have a 3rd wire to light the backlighting. This will require an extra switch to activate then.

Thank you for confirming this for me. It is exactly what I thought would have to be done, including the extra switch for the backlighting.

CzechMate-
I've got that same rack ready to go on, do you have any other pics of the distance between the rack and the body just above the mount? I'm not up for the body mount and the frame mount won't clear my bumper so I'm looking for options before I begin installation. If it doesn't look like it'll come together then she'll go to CL for someone else to use.

here are some pics that hopefully will answer your question. If you were wondering as to if the hard top can be removed with this rack than the answer is yes. Here are some pics. Good luck.

Now that looks great! Was wondering how it'd look with the top off. Do you have to remove the rack to take the top off or does it tilt back??

No, I don't have to remove the rack to remove the roof. The rack is permanently mounted to the Jeep. I slide the roof straight back when the tail gate is open, there is just barely enough room so I gotta watch my fingers as to not pinch them

Do you get wind noise with the rack? I'm planning on this being my summer kayak rack and it'll go back into storage for the winter.
