Roof Mounted Led Bar Glare

Also like you stated height becomes an issue when in the garage.

Roof mounted led bar glare.

Also roof mounted bars can have a tendency to cause glare on full windshields. It is aimed up as much as possible without sacrificing usable light. It s a black aerial but with a gloss finish and the glare off this was very annoying. It is almost easier to see without the light on.

Does anyone else have this problem. The best application for this roof mounted light bar is for a time when your truck is parked and you need to illuminate a large area. Rather than do that i mounted it back from the windshield to let the roof shield the hood just like the old days when pickups mounted their kc lights behind the cab. I have been working on a solution for this.

The light bar on the roof creates a lot of glare both off the hood and off the windshield glass itself if it s dirty which is most of the time. I think they are to high and will get caught on trees and what not and get damaged. Discussion in 2nd gen. By mounting between the roofrack legs i was also able to use the bolts that secure the legs to the actual roofrack to mount the led bar didn t need any additional bolts holes.

I have been getting really bad glare with my 50 roof mount light bar. Install a light bar on your truck or suv for added utility and aesthetic appeal. The only glare that i got was off the telephone aerial mounted on the bullbar. I m not a fan at all of the roof mounted light bars.

I will post after more testing. Roof mounted led light bar glare. Tacomas 2005 2015 started by dsmjrv jun 10 2015.
