Led Light bar behind grill
Hey guys, I want to put a 20 inch led light bar in the slot right below the grill. I narrowed it down to 2 :
20inch 120W CREE 10-30V Double Row LED Light Bar
Or
120W 12000LM Cree LED Spot Work Light Offroad Lamp CAR Truck Jeep 4WD UTE ATV | eBay
I figured more lumens is better and the single row will fit better
Any suggestions?

A very cool idea, but you might run into some trouble given the wattage, unless you put them on a separate switch. Most states limit it to 55W (forward beams) Then you can call them "Off Road Lights"
PS: a couple other things...
That 120W equates to 10 amps, so a fairly heavy Switch would be needed, and...
60°C is 140°F, so, don't get them too close to the Radiator, then...
It didn't give the dimensions, but they (either) look pretty large, you might have
a problem with Air Flow, so be careful about that.

I have already wired a separate switch with a 12 amp fuse. They should have enough air flow because I have a aftermarket bumper that lets more air in. Thanks for your option!

Let us see some pictures when you get it lit !
PS: in2pro
That unit has about 40 LED's drawing 3W each, so it really is 120W/10A. (if he used the first one)
If he used the second one, it has 12 lamps, so...10W each.
Now, I'll grant you that either will/should put out a lot more Lumens than a standard Incandescent 120W/12V Lamp.
