How does the lightbar attach? build and price bug?

[beachman101]

I always thought it attached to the little windshield things. But this doesnt make any sense.

The CGI picture does look a little funny, but I'm assuming it's intended to attach to the mounting points built into the top of the windshield.

::EDIT::

Looks to be how the Filson Concept lightbar is attached.

This is for the Filson edition because of the type of top it has. The lightbar attachment will look similar to what's on the Overland rig.

The lightbar on the overland rig is attached to the top of the roof rack... which the OP's picture does not have.

Yep. Most we have seen attach to the roof rack. Designed that way. Without the roof rack, unknown at this point.

Yuh. No duh.

You asked how the lightbar in the B&P image was going to be attached and I was guessing it would be to the existing mount points (that the factory roof rack uses), and used the Filson build closeup as an example of how it could be done. It seems like the really the only logical way to attach something up there.

I think if what you're bumping on is the specific location of the rendered lightbar, the most likely answer is that the B&P is funky.

Perhaps I could have worded my post better

And for those who've never owned lightbars, they're obnoxiously loud (aka whistle) if steps are not taken to reduce the noise and even then there is definitely noise.

I talked to an engineer at the Super Celebration West and he stated that the lightbar is mounted in two different ways.
1) Mounted to the roof rack mounts in the front
2) Mounted to special brackets for those without the roof rack (same mounting location, different brackets)

so no chance of roofless lightbars?

For sure there is. If you mount them at the rack attachment points.
