After the successful backup light install, I started shopping for light bars for the front. I was thinking about installing it in the bumper, and found a 21" on Amazon that I thought would fit perfectly. I also picked up a cheap wiring harness with a relay.
I started the project today by looking at the bumper. It appeared that I would have to drill through the double walled metal bumper (behind the plastic cover).
I wasn't confident about drilling a straight hole without removing the plastic cover assembly, so I went with Plan B and installed behind the grille.
There is a nice flat piece of plastic bracing to attach the light to behind the grille. I am worried that the grille will block too much light.
I haven't driven with it yet, but I did test in the daylight, and just now in the driveway.
The whole project came in at around $45. What do you guys think?
