Default Custom light bar

Like the Delta light bar but haven't gotten the best feedback on Delta lights.

Thinking about doing a custom light bar and running up IPFs on it. Looking for low profile - jeep currently clears the garage by 5 inches.

Before i get something fabricated, what options are out there for just a light bar that will work with a snorkel.

MBRP makes a nice one just came out a few weeks ago I think. It's on Quadratec's site.

Most others are really cheaply made or are by custome shops. DIYers have the best one's I've seen.

thx.

Doesn't seem to be AEV snorkel compatible. DIY seems like it.

How much clearance are you working around with your garage? We may be able to help you depending on the clearance and style of lights you want to run...

How about one of those hood light bars. I forget who makes them but I think I've seen two different versions that hold 3 or 4 lights.

I did the oval lights. My hubby made them into a light bar.

They are very bright.
