Someone create a bracket for the 13-14 model front bumpers and I'm game. Stinks that it's a smaller opening than early 4th gens. Might have to get creative with my neighbor and his welder :D

How did you install it? Did you mount the mounts that come with it to something or did you make your own?

Hey, Im new to the forum :)

Just received my 41.5" curved light bar yesterday... wil work on the brackets during the weekend.

Seems to be a great fit, BTW I would love to stick to OEM switches, do you anyone happens to know if they sell similar switches?

After seeing the straight bar installed I ended up ordering a 42" off eBay. Was $100 less than the curved and this way I won't feel bad of I break it. Still trying to figure out a place to mount a switch myself. I was thinking about adding a remote box like I had on my old car and just leave the key fob in the truck to save myself the trouble of running the wires since I have a bench seat and don't have that deep console like my last truck which would have made a nice hiding spot for switches.

I have a 2014 sport what are you guys doing with the license plate so it doesn't sit too low? I was thinking of modifying the holder a bit. Got one of these led bars on the way. Can't believe how much they came down in price last year when I was looking at doing this they were over 200. I got one for 100.

guys this 42" install is easy to do. You have to remove the spacer and cross braces...then just use a piece of metal about 4" long and 1.5" wide. Drill a hole in it and mount it to the bumper bracket bolts....then easy as pie to install.
