mine still says ships tomorrow. Guess I need to start looking up how to wire the DRL directly into the headlights so it's on whenever they are.

i dont like to cut factory wires .they make taps you crimp over the factory wire & it pierces the insulation to make contact or you could strip a little insulation off & solder the new wire on & wrap with ele. tape

Where can I pick up the lower mesh grill w/sensor mounts. My grill is faux mesh without pass through holes, and I want to mount the 20" bar 'behind" the mesh grille.

Okay so the first picture is my $40 eBay light bar it is mounted five feet off of the ground on my side by side roof the second picture is the Rough Country light bar 5 feet off the ground the third picture is Rough Country light bar down at bumper level where it will be mounted in the Ram truck the Rough Country Bar has plenty of flood light to it I was hoping for more spot distance when mounted at bumper level the light only shines down the road 250 ft

I got my installed today as well. I am happy with it even though the flood part isn't there. I just aimed it up a touch. Gonna keep it.

No floods now? Is this what threw the light more to the left and right vs straight ahead? For me, i got this more for illuminating a campsite and the wide pattern. If the missing flood bulbs detract from this, I'm gonna return it and try to order old stock from another site.

You returning the RC bar then? I am curious if you can get the 22" bar to fit between the RC brackets.
