It's a rigid 20 inch spot and flood combo and the grills are rigid as well, not stock.
The performance is great, but it does create a little bit of a hot spot on the road/trail. Hence, the roof mount lights will be a "necessity".:hurt:
I tried those as well. Although they are bright the light doesn't project. They would make ideal backup lights or undercarriage lights. Best of luck though.
I haven't had much time on the rig, will upload pics tomorrow.
Yup, those are they. They are really only DRL. Since they have no reflectors they don't really light up the trail or street even though they are very bright. But I think they look great and appear to be factory.
Bump. I hear that Epic is the only manufacturer to make a 45 curved bar. Does that match with anyone's experience? They aren't cheap and are on a 6 to 8 week back order.
No glare from the hood while I am driving from the driver's seat. However because the flood beam was like 60 degrees, a lot of the light gets zapped given its close location to the hood. Hence a spot or a combo arrangement is the better option.
I played around with other Led arrangements...
I may take some more. You mount it to the 4 screws that hold the scoop in. However the hood has single use plastic rivets that hold the insulation to the hood. So I would have to order a new set to take a photo of the underside.
Here they are. I couldn't get a good photo of them lit up at night because the blue one is pretty bright. Two are AOB and one is CH4x4. The wiring harnesses are identical.
These are IDENTICAL hardware.
So it can be done, and I had it done.
The trick to installing a LED Lighter in a 5th gen hood scoop is finding a LED Lighter that is low profile. I was able to find a single one that worked.
Here is a link to it:

I will take a pick for you tomorrow. If it were me, go with AOB despite the bootleg packaging and computer printed wiring diagram. I can't say any more than they appear to be exactly the same. I have about 6 unmounted switches so I will show them as well.
Of course the best switch I intend...
Thanks man. I am curious if anyone else has mounted a curved bar to a 5th gen and what materials they used. I can literally find nothing on it. It's not a sticky either.
The final piece of the puzzle for my build is a roof mounted light bar. I don't have a rack and planned on using (and purchased) the 50 inch N-Fab mounts.
I have now purchased 3 light bars and all of them will need to go back. The Black Oak is awesome but is 52 inches long. An eBay knock...
Just a heads up here. The CH4x4 switches are exactly the same as the AOB as far as I can tell. The difference is that the AOB switches come in a small ziplock bag with a marker designating what color the are supposed to be. Hard to believe I know. The CH4x4 switches have the same harness and...
I have a 3 inch OME lift on my 2016 w/o UCAs. I have seen no problems yet and have no rubbing issues after I cut the flaps and pushed the wheel liner forward a little bit.
The ride with the OMe medium springs is perfect. It eliminates the squishy feeling the stock suspension had.
I think I paid 400 or so for my OME kit. Everyone is correct, shop rates between 70 and 110 are pretty common here in Texas. Whatever you do, don't go to a stealership. 4wheel parts did mine. You will also need an alignment and balancing/mounting for new wheels and tires. That adds another...
