Routing the Lightbar Cable(s):

1.

To  protect  the  headliner  from  damage  caused  by  drilling  the  cable
access  hole  through  the  vehicle  roof,  allow  a  5”  to  7”  distance
between roof and headliner by lowering the headliner before drilling.

2.

Using a 1” hole saw, drill the cable access hole then use a round file
to  smooth  and  de-burr  the  edges  of  the  hole.  Install  a  1”  grommet
(user supplied).

NOTE: There may be a roof support member that spans the distance
between  the  driver’s  and  passenger’s  side.  DO  NOT  DRILL
THROUGH THIS MEMBER! Adjust the location until the hole can be
drilled without contacting this support member.

3.

Insert  the  cable(s)  through  the  cable  access  hole  into  the  vehicle.
Use RTV silicone to weatherproof the access hole after the cable(s)
are pulled completely into the vehicle.

4.

Route  the  cable(s)  one  at  a  time  to  their  respective  destinations
(power cable to vehicle battery; control cable to switch panel). Refer
to  the  instructions  included  with  your  switches  for  switch  wiring
information.

Permanent Mounting:

Caution:

Permanent mounting of this product will require drilling.

It  is  absolutely  necessary  to  make  sure  that  no  other  vehicle
components could be damaged by this process. Check both sides of
the  mounting  surface  before  starting.  If  damage  is  likely,  select  a
different mounting location.

1.

Install  the  mounting  foot  to  the  lightbar  following  steps  1  thru  4  of
“Strap Mounting”.

2.

Drill two holes in each mounting foot as shown to accommodate the
permanent mount hardware. 

3.

Position  the  lightbar
onto  the  vehicle  in  its
exact 

mounting

location  and  mark  the
location 

of 

the

mounting  holes  onto
the surface of the roof
using  the  mounting
feet as templates.

4.

Remove  the  lightbar
and 

drill 

the 

4

mounting holes.

5.
