Light Bar install photos

We reinstalled the Sneed4Speed light bar on my R56 and I finally got photos of the install. I'm also going to do a curved LED light bar mount for it too. Like we did on Alter Ego.

More info on it located here - http://www.sneed4speed.com/r56-mini-rally-light-bar/

I like it and have ordered more than a few things from you guys but it looks like the bar will prevent a larger FMIC from being mounted.

Also, the one review on your website had this to say...

"Made of very strong tubed steel with welded flat steel fingers that the lights get mounted too. Had to drill out the mounting holes on the frame because the bar was about an 1/8 in too wide. Distance between finger 1 & 2 was about 1/2 in different than finger 3 & 4. Needed to make modifications to the light mounting hardware in order to accurately space the lights on the fingers. Still a good solid product if you don't mind doing a bit of customization. With a little tighter quality control this could be a 5 star product."

Has this issue been corrected? Not that I couldn't but I don't want to have to fix this before installing it. I'd love to order another product from you guys!

The jig was loose and caused some problems. They have been resolved now. Fingers are straight and true. Have a seen some slight fit on the frame problems from cars that have been in very minor bumps but the hole in the radiator support can be drilled larger and the bar installed without issue.

Doesn't look like it would clear a Forge intercooler. That would be critical for me. If it does, I'll order one from you. Do you sell the lights as well? If not, where would you recommend for purchsing the lights?

Could you please send me a URL where I am able to purchase this item. Thanks Mike
