I cannot for the life of me find info anywhere on the web for how to do this. I’m looking for some guidance on how to mount a 20” light bar in my bumper without having to cut 20” of plastic out of my bumper. Has anyone here done this to the one piece lower bumper mesh? Seems all the install vids online are for the 2 piece, mesh with the back plate. If I order the open front mesh only from mopar will it fit? I don’t want to cut my truck up. Thanks in advance!

If you do not want to cut the stock mesh - (I didn't - i wanted a stock look) Order the Mopar part for the diesel - - its about $40 in the US.
Then buy a number of kits - (Rough Country is what i used) and mount it behind.
Look stock - Doesn't stick out.
I am very happy with mine -but wasn't able to route a seperate switch inside - so they come on with my Highs.
YMMV

Thanks for your reply. I’ll call the dealer in the morning for the part number. I’m using switch pros for all my aux power needs. Check them out! Do you know if just the brackets can be purchased from rough country? I don’t want their light bar.

Check Shifts & grins website. I can’t remember if you can order the mesh piece through there or not, but has the rest of the stuff to make it easy with all of the info on how it looks with the different trims. They just posted it on the forums on their TRX build the other day also.
