LED Light Bars

A light bar is a distance tool, not a do-everything light — its job is throwing usable light far down the trail at speed. This is the full LED light bar catalog, single-row for reach and dual-row for spread, in sizes from stubby 20-inch bars to 50-inch roof runs. Filter by year, make, and model, and pair a bar with pod and cube lights or fog and ditch lights for the near and mid-range coverage a bar alone leaves dark.

Building a Layered Off-Road Lighting System

A light bar solves one problem well — distance — and creates a gap up close, because a bar aimed far down the trail leaves the ground right in front of you dark. That's why a bar works best as one layer in a system rather than a single fix. Reach comes from the bar; everything near and to the sides comes from other lights.

Fill the foreground and corners with pod and cube lights and fog and ditch lights, which light the near ground, the shoulders, and the lines you're actually steering through at trail speed. Underhood and rock lights handle recovery and camp tasks once you've stopped. Together they cover what a bar alone can't.

Everything here lives under auxiliary off-road lights, filtered by year, make, and model so brackets and harnesses match your rig. Plan the layers and the wiring together — decide reach, spread, and switching before you mount, so the system works as one instead of a stack of mismatched beams.

LED Light Bars FAQs

Single-row or dual-row light bar for off-road?

Single-row bars throw light farther down the trail, while dual-row bars produce more total output and a wider spread up close. For high-speed desert running, single-row reach usually wins; for slow technical trails where you want a wall of near light, dual-row helps. Many builds run a single-row bar for distance and add pods for the foreground.

What size light bar do I need?

Match the bar to your vehicle width and mounting spot rather than chasing maximum length: a 20 to 30-inch bar suits bumper and ditch positions, while 40 to 50-inch bars fit roof mounts. Bigger draws more current and can overwhelm the foreground with glare. Pick the size your mount and wiring can actually support cleanly.

Are LED light bars street legal?

In most states auxiliary light bars are legal to mount but must be covered or wired off for on-road driving, since they aren't aimed or regulated like headlights. Rules vary by state, so check local law. Wiring the bar to a switched circuit that only works off-road keeps you compliant and prevents blinding oncoming traffic.

Do I need a wiring harness for a light bar?

Yes, run a relay-based wiring harness with an inline fuse for any light bar, because high-output LEDs draw more current than a switch alone should carry. A proper harness protects the circuit, isolates the load from your factory wiring, and gives clean switching. Most quality bars either include a harness or list the correct one to add.
