Raptor LED Stealth Light Bar Installed

I’m guessing this light bar doesn’t have DRLs if it’s just wired to aux 6?

Correct, just all white.

reviving an old post but I love the look how's the light output from them? I saw your inital test pics but wondering how they are doing a few months down the line and if you're still happy with them?

Just as a public service announcement: you can use this spot as long as your light bar is relatively "thin," from front to back. Mine, sadly, was not.

After seeing this thread, I was glad to see the no mod spot to mount a light bar behind the grille. So I grabbed my 30" Diode Dynamics bar and set out to install it today. Only problem is that my light bar is not a smallish rectangular shape like the Altiq one, mine is sort of like a triangular shape. Lots of finned, surface area, I can only assume to aid in cooling it?

The bracket is in the way but you can see the triangular shape of the light bar here:

Can see in the image below as the light bar makes a straight line after hitting on the center support, that pushes the near end out too far to have the mounting hole match up or even fit behind the grille.

Long story short, it's too deep and was hitting on the center "support," and won't fit. Only option I could see would be to notch out a piece where I circled in red.

One little tidbit is that you don't have to unhook the wiring to the camera or the hose to the washer for the front camera, just let the grill sit and hold it with a bungee:

Anyone have a "depth" measurement on the altiq light bar? From front to back as it sits in the truck so I have an idea of how big a light bar will or won't fit?
