Thumbs up Looks really awesome

I really like what you have done with everything but the lights on the top they look out of place to me I would mount them on the bull bar instead. IMO
But it still looks fricken sweet

On the fence...

Yeah, I'm on the fence about the light bar up top.

It's a new setup from Bully...they call it their "Baja Champion" line. It's a pair of 8" round off road lamps and a special vehicle-specific mounting system that utilizes the third brake light. Basically, you remove the third brake light, mount this light bar with a couple of plates, and remount the third brake light. All of the wiring comes into the cab via the third brake light. It's a very sturdy setup. There are mounting tabs for back-up lights as well. It's different and Bully asked me to demo it.

It does seem out of place at times...kinda got a baja race truck look going on.

I think it looks good, but it is too bad you cant extend the bracket and mount 4 on top. Also its too bad they dont have it hinged so it can fold down out of the way if you ever have clearance problems. How do you wire the lights into the cab, is it difficult to run them down into the cab to a controller in the front?

Can you space them out and put more on later or is it just a two light system?
I think it is a cool concept but I have always liked seeing 4 lights on top.

There are only tabs for two lights on top....I agree, there should be four, but the way the thing mounts might not allow for that much more weight or something. There are 4 mounting spaces on the back downside tabs, where you could mount rear facing lamps, antennas, etc though...not sure. Clearance problems could be an issue, yep, because it doesn't fold down.

I think their goal here was an inexpensive alternative to roll bars or cab-top light bars for a guy that needs a mounting point for lamps, but doesn't want to shell out a ton of cash. I think the deal is going to be a $100 price point, ballpark.

The lamps come with extended wiring harnesses to get you into the cab, to the battery, and to the switch. The lamps are dual beam, which is kind of cool.

Great job gives the truck a more agressive off road look to it.

Looks good. I'm usually not a fan of black wheels but they do look good on yours.

Question: Is that an xm/sirius antenna right above the windshield??? If so how hard was it to feed the wire to it??
