| Question for guys mounting LED bars to sport roofs. Does your LED Bar vibrate when on and cause your light beam to bounce as well since its mounted to plastic roof or is it solid and cant tell anything? I am curious as I am thinking about getting a 30" double row from Flimmy for mine and was going to mount it on the front of my sport roof on the little lip thats perfect for a bar for now until I go see James and get a metal JBS roof and then I would mount the bar feet to the metal roof. | |

| Cool deal even if it shakes a little now I bet once I get my JBS roof it wouldn't move at all being an aluminum roof. I like the fact that a 30" bar fits in that location and I should be able to blind some dumb asses with that kind of a bar!!! | |

| I had mine mounted to my cage. I had this cage on my 450. I kept it when I traded so I wouldn't have to do all that work again. I think with all the dips and curves in the sport roof that it may do pretty good. Those bends in that roof really stiffen it up. My light is now bolted to my JBS roof. | |

Yeah yours looks BADASS with the roof on and I can imagine what a 30" bar on it would be like specially in the woods!!! I bet you could see a line of ants crossing the trail at 50yrds in the dark with and double row 30" bar....... | |

| Denny Your not helping either but you strike a valid point and that rzr doesn't have a double row either!!! Lol I wonder if the light output of the DR vs the SR is worth the $$ and the amp draw. I have several things hooked to my battery now but I don't run everything all the time at once either. | |

| I'd love to have a light bar like that, but I'm worried about branches and trees that roll cage and roof come in contact with all the time. since that seems the the optimum mounting location | |

| I have mine mounted inside the cage upside down. With all the extra height of these rhino cages i figured why not take advantage of it. | |

| Mines has been mounted through the roof since I have owned it. There is absolutely no light shake even on my tuff land.
The one thing I did do was use the thickest large washers I could find to sandwich my roof. I have never needed to tighten them and I have hit some pretty good size limbs with it.
It's a VisionX and super tuff.
