    light bar on a CX-5??

    In WV I know they're only legal as off road lights. I still use mine as a high beam on the back roads so that I can see wildlife easier and hopefully avoid hitting something.

    light bar on a CX-5??

    I would suggest double checking your state laws before putting it on the roof. I know that here in WV you legally aren't allowed to have lights above your headlights, although it isn't enforced. I only have the Touring model and am putting in a set of VLED's in my low beams and want the light...

    The CX-5 LED Lighting Thread

    Has anyone done their reverse lights in LED's and been happy with them? I'm looking at a set made by Philips that have all good reviews and want to pull the trigger on them but wanted the opinions of others on of there is something better.

    light bar on a CX-5??

    I don't think it'd be too low. I had it on the lower portion of my WRX's grille and it worked great. And I really don't want to spend any more money on additional lights. I think I'm going to have my buddy that works for a fabrication company make some brackets to mount it somewhere behind the...

    led or hid

    led or hid

    I personally would not recommend HID. I had a 13' mustang with factory HID's and they got so hot that they melted the housing, TWICE! I've had LED's in every vehicle before and after that and have had absolutely zero issues with them.

    light bar on a CX-5??

    I currently have the regular halogen lights. I got used to the LED's in my WRX and want them back. I am going to be installing VLED's Low beams within the next week and want the light bar to wire into my high beams.

    light bar on a CX-5??

    I meant cutting out that plastic cross piece in the middle of the lower section and inserting the light bar there.

    light bar on a CX-5??

    Ah dang it. I was hoping to be able to avoid having to get a bull bar to mount it on but if it is that flimsy I think I'll just spend the money for the bar.

    light bar on a CX-5??

    so I have a 20" light bar that I took off of my WRX before I sold it. I'm wanting to put it on my CX 5 and wanted to know if yall think that the lower portion of the front bumper would be supportive enough to hold it or not.
