I have been looking into a light bar for my 1997 for a while now, and saw what calg3 and shotking4 have done with the Pro Comp Hoop Light Bar for the Chevy 88-99 fullsizes. I was debating how to mount it, as it doesn't line up as well as expected. I mounted some spare cheapo ebay 150w lights for the pics.


What do you guys think?

 

hell yeah i like it, clean install..flows well with the light pattern on the roof. a+ man!

 

CLEANSR5, what kind of rack are you running?

 

Very nice install, like RoorRunner said..."Flows nice with roof lights"!

I was debating on an alternative method than the brushguard but didn't want to spend all that cash on a TJM or ARB.

If you dont' mind, what did it run you on cost and can you go into greater detail on the install? Did you have to drill holes, etc....Is it possible to mount lights on the underneath (upside down) from where the current lights are?

Thanks and again looks very nice!

looks awesome! i would love to know the cost and specifics of this! thanks.

btw, the lights look like they are angled very high. is that just the angle of the pic?

 

Looks good man

 

The lights are angled pretty high, I need to put in some more spacers. Well, from thepartsbin.com (the WORST online store known to man) it was around 157.00 after almost a month of waiting for it. I had to drill two holes into the flat peice of the bumper, the bottom corners are not even secured, but it feels nice and sturdy, none the less. Lights ARE possible on the underneath, and I will go for that once I can afford another fill-up at the gas station. The rack is the Surco Safari Basket.

 

looks nice, but those lights must shoot for the moon, definitely try and flip the below. I think it'll look better, offer some protection, and be more functional

 

if i didnt buy a TJM i would buy one, but i wouldnt want to wait a month!

 

i like to call it my "i wish i could afford TJM" mod

 

You must do a lot of night wheeling!!

 

i do my fair share, because im usually working around the cabin during the day. but im also, infortunately addicted to lights. It's quite a problem for me

 

hey I really like that bar when you installed it did it just go on or did you have to bend anything, also where did you get it web site name please
thanks that looks really good

 

Can you post a picture of how you attached the lower part of the bar?

 

well the lower part of the bar isnt secured, i didnt drill into the lower part. where to buy? any truck parts store online should have it. i googled 88-99 Chevy Pro Comp Light Bar and got a few online shops that carry it. make sure you get "hoop" style though, i got the regular bar thinking that there was only one, and now i got a full size light bar for a chevy suburban sitting in my garage that i don't know what to do with, and the online store won't pay for shipping. Just make sure you get the hoop style light bar.
