Just installed a brand new Light Bar, with Baja Designs 8" Halogen (can't afford HID's...)La Paz lights...
Paul Fox from Defiant Truck Products asked if I would try one out, and see what I thought.
The first good news is that the mounting brackets are behind the bumper so you don't loose the factory tow hooks. For me, loosing the hooks would be a deal breaker.
Second was the 3 light brkts, which is a pretty good way to go, I ran a pencil beam in the middle and 2 wide driving beams on either side. Paul's brackets are the new 3 hole mounting style (a full bracket, not just a light tab) which happen to fit not only the Hella 4000 series, but the Baja Designs also. The bar also sit's higher then most I've seen, which means those lights will get out farther...
Really good powder coat paint, trick billet engraved/machined aluminum end caps, and pretty easy to install. I think Paul said he could also make one with just 2 light brackets, or maybe 4 if needed.
Styling of course is alway subjective, but I think it looks good on my truck...
No guys, I don't work for Defiant or get some sort of commission...just sharing what I've found...but here's a link and pics...
