Nahhh. Just blind people and better type of light solutions if you need light cast out ahead of you on trails.
Anyone turning on light bars on public roads with other drivers is brain dead.

I did not have to modify anything to install. However if I recall correctly, been over a year ago, that when I went to set the light in it looked like I was going to have to do some cutting. Then realized I had the brackets on the wrong sides.
If there is a 50/50 chance of making the wrong choice I typically make the wrong one at first.
That is good to know, because I really like this one. Seems the posters here aren't as mechanically inclined as I thought

Just to be clear, my truck is a 2024 Ranger Raptor. Altiq has a pretty good install video.

I don't think anything changed between 2024-26 on the RR mechanically

I have the lights in the rear of the truck. The truck senses a trailer and sets off all kinds of warnings and disables side monitoring. Is there a way to trick the truck so it doesn't sense a trailer. I have connected the wires aft of the plug behind the bumper. Im not actually using the 4 pin plug. Any info on this?

I think its awesome. Would i prefer it behind the grill? Yeah. But, the CREE LEDs, the Raptor color backlighting, and build quality are top quality. Don't buy cheap Chinese shit.
I like the behind the grill type location better but am concerned about buying stuff that was made in China. Where is the Paladin light bar made?

I believe the Altiq light bars have a ten year warranty.
