Just in case......
I tried both of these and they block the windshield washer fluid. I know it's a jeep but with winter in the northeast and the salt/brine they constantly put down.
You have to be able to use it to see. Not to mention frost and ice.
I don't know what they were thinking with the design, if they pushed the bar out just a couple of inches it would work.
And I compared a Rigid Industries 10" sr light bar on the hood and bumper.
The hood worked a lot better, more "throw" and less shadows but unfortunately unable to mount it.
I may try to fabricate something.....
