Jeep Liberty light bar. Indignant responses questioning my state of mental health, gender preference, parental lineage, etc., would all probably be very effective.

Are you sane? They look really feminine. Spend that money on your kinds instead. Something like that? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" /> Do you have a roof rack? Looks more "offroady" to fit some lights to the front of it then, and probably easier. Maybe someone could do a photoshop to see what it would look like on your rig.

I dunno... Anything that reminds me of boobs when I look at my truck can't be bad.

Show lights. By DOT regulations they do not put out any light worth the time or money to install them. I do not know wether the base is flexible enough to conform to the different contour of your roof.
To me they are just a set of overgrown cab marker lights. But Hey I remember the days when many installed twin trucker antennas and cab lights on Chevy 1/8 ton pickups.

Funny, I've been thinking "Hmmm" when I look at those Liberty lights for a while. Also had the same thought as Charlie about it confirming to the different rook shapes. I pretty much decided it was a bad idea because it would always look like I put some Jeep lights on my Montero <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

You know, it's amazing how many things remind us of boobs.
I look at roof mounted lights and wonder what are they trying to light up. Fog beams would put so much light on the hood that any light they put on the road is lost. Driving beams would light up the roof rack of the truck ahead of you and wake up birds, but won't light up the road. Be better off putting boobs on the top front of your truck. More aesthetic, at least. That I would like to see photoshopped...

I had roof lights on my rig for several years, but decided they were more trouble than they were worth. I've since removed them and replaced them with two bumper-mounted PIAA fog lights and an A-pillar "cop-car" light. Much better combo, if you ask me. The roof lights cast a very bright reflection off the hood (that's why I painted the hood black) and they can't ever be used when on pavement. The fog lights on the bumper, however, are legal to use on pavement and really help out during very adverse weather conditions. They're also better on the trail.

I acquired a Conferr light bar this past September. I'm going to mount a yellow construction light next to my Super Oscars. I have a Conferr rack that'll be going up soon, too. This morning: So far worth about .5 mpg loss. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
