Jeep Liberty light bar on a VX

[thebear54]

I agree Greg...a little farther back might eliminate that overhang too.
Other than that I think it looks pretty decent

Its a work in progress...I eliminated the overhangs and mounted it in place of my roof rack. I haven't wired them up yet and just installed it when I took the photos so I haven't adjusted the aim yet. Each light (Hella) has individual up & down adjustment.

In 7 years of ownership I've never used my roof racks for anything so it doesn't bother me to remove them for this mod. The roof baskets just aren't for me as I really don't want to keep a wheel/tire up there. My main concerns were:

1) Have an easily removable light bar that is securely mounted as opposed to a permanently mounted one like the Liberty Renegade. It is as easy to remove/install as the original roof rack other than it weighs more.

2) Pass for a factory, OEM installation (okay..to the unsuspecting public..lol).

3) Be out of the way for a future installation of a power moon (sun?) roof.

Until I get them working & adjust the beams I won't know for sure if there is any issues to work out but all in all I love the look...hope you guys do to!

I plan on mounting a full-size wheel/tire carrier (baja racing style) in place of the rear seat that is removable so I can switch back & forth when I need to carry passengers.

Thanx! I shined the cladding up with Meguiar's Tire Shine (spray can w/ adjustable nozzle) available at Wal-Mart and Advance or Autozone. I like it because it doesn't streak when it gets wet for like 3-4 weeks until it wears off. Just be sure to wipe off any excess.

Thanks! I got mine on Ebay...just search either (Jeep Liberty, light bar) or (Renegade, light bar) on ebay and you'll probably see some listed. When I bought mine there was a used one and some new ones. I paid $185 plus $20 shipping for new in box. They retail for about $445 from dealer carrying Mopar parts.

Excellent. You're only slightly less lit up than a UFO. How much is all that gonna draw, when you flip the switch? Any need to add a battery, or get a bigger alternator. Get a set of those giant, hood mount, landing lights the WRC guys use. Looks great.

I think that looks GREAT. How hard was the install?
