Light Bars

LED light bars: length is not the spec that matters

A light bar is bought by the inch and judged by the beam pattern. A long bar of pure flood lights the hedgerow and nothing beyond it; a short spot reaches far down the trail and leaves the edges dark. Combo bars run spot optics in the middle and flood at the ends, which is why most people end up with one.

Curved bars suit a curved roofline and spread light wider. Straight bars are easier to mount low. Single-row is slimmer and less draggy; double-row is brighter and heavier. Every bar needs a relay and a fuse, not a wire spliced into the ignition.
