NOTE:
Unless otherwise specified, the
lightbar mounting feet must be sitting as
close to the edge of the roof as possible.
Mounting feet must also be in full contact
with the roof and not be hanging off
the edge.
IMPORTANT:
For strap mounted bars, be sure you have the right
sized lightbar for your vehicle. The lightbar should be about the
same width as the vehicle roof. If the
lightbar is too large or small it will not
mount properly to the vehicle and
may shift or come loose during driving.

NOTE:
The mounting straps are made to fit the contours of individual
vehicles. The strap
may look different. If your lightbar has a 5"
mounting foot, it will assemble differently than the standard
mounting foot. It also uses an extension to compensate for
the extra height. Follow these illustrations for assembly.
Mounting to the lightbar is the same.

Routing your 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.
WARNING! 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.
2.
Using a 1” hole saw, drill the cable access hole. Use a round file to smooth
and de-burr the edges than insert a 1” grommet.
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) through the vehicle following manufacturers
recommendations.
WARNING: Many vehicles are now equipped with side curtain and B-
pillar air bags. Alternate routing may be required.
DRILLING THE CABLE ACCESS HOLE
Drill cable access hole in appropriate area
for your lightbar (see note)
