Anyone put a light bar on their car? Where did you get it and how much work is it to put on? I want one with the brake light in it...ive seen them everywhere for sale, but how hard is it to put on?

I put the CDC light bar on my vert. It was a very simple install. Took 3-4 hours. Be sure to get the wiring that disables the brake lights when the top is up. Really improves the look of the verts.The chassis is much stiffer now; it is very noticeable. Almost all of my rattles and squeeks are gone after I installed the light bar and the car feels much more solid when hitting bumps.

Iwentwith the CDC also. Install was very simple. Read the instructionsfirst and make sure you have sharpdrill bits and a hole saw of the apropriate size. I had to stop mid install togo buy some new bits.

Also, you might want to use some tape to tape the nuts to your wrench. I kept dropping the nut and had to go to the hardware store to buy some new ones.
