Ok guys....I really want to get a 50" light bar.

I've read a ton of reviews etc..and it seems like everyone's whistles.

Is there or will there be a manufacturer designing these to remedy the problem?

You'd think this would be common knowledge enough now that they'd realize there are probably alot of lost sales because people like myself are nervous to pull a very expensive trigger and be miserable.

I have done nothing to my 52" e your life bar, other than put it on an hmf mount and it's never whistled or howled or buffeted or played that funky music white boy

I see a lot of guys put $10 of weather stripping between the fins. Seems to help

 

Is the E designed differently?

Not that I'm aware off and there's one for sale cheap on the forum now I think the mounts are what makes the difference it sits lower than most. It still clears the wipers I'm running which are rain x brand

I have the HMF mounts and light from Texas liberty LED. There was a very slight whistle so I just put some weather stripping between a couple of the center fins and no whistle now.

 

Thanks guys. Anyone have experience with the curved bars? I've heard they don't whistle

IMHO I wouldn't put a curved bar on a vehicle with a flat windscreen

I have a rigid e series that did whistle a bit on the highway...contact rigid and they will give you some inserts for the back that stop the howling

 

I've seen them on a few Toyotas in another club I visit and they look cool. But just like a straight bar looks goofy on a really curved windshield line, the curved light looks really goofy on our straight windshields from the pictures I've seen. I personally wouldn't do it.
