Installing a light bar or driving lights

[Markee]

Thanks Sunny. Markee did you have any issues with shipping taking ages for your light bar? Some of the opinions on the interwebs say that 4WD Supacentre take forever with shipping.

Mine took a regular amount of time. I have also heard it can take longer.
Live bought a few things from them and are satisfied with their service.

Hi guys. Been following this thread for a bit. Just bought a 2015 LWB Transporter & want to put a light bar in. Got a quick one about mounting the light bar in the grille. Markee or Sunny, have you had any problems with restricting airflow to the cooling system with the light bar mounted as you guys have done?

Maybe you could look at a slimline version if you are worried about airflow.

We have one each on my work van 2005 and our family van 2012 , not one issue with airflow at all no unusual things have occurred over the five plus years they have been on the vans .

If you look at Markees and ours its not worth worrying about , it just does not make any difference and we often tow a fully loaded trailer and van full of MX bikes and gear .

Thanks guys. Saw what u guys have done & thought it was a great idea. Someone mentioned to me it might be worth looking into any issues with blocking airflow, but clearly u guys haven't had an issue, which is what I was hoping to hear.

How do you guys mount the LED bars in the grill area without removing the whole front bumber bar?

[Sunny43.5]

You will need to remove the bar as its the only way to get a nice flush fit , its not as hard as you would think to remove just a few plastic clips and scews etc .The main thing is to make sure you cut the hole neatly so it fits in nicely . Is yours a first generation T5 the later T5.1 ?

[Copiya]

Mine is the later 5.1 (2012)

I just did this, then mounted it all back together only to have the led aiming too low! Ugh... Now I have to remove the bashguard to get to the bottom 3 bolts of the bumper... Might try find my hole saw...
