I would like a roof mounted light bar but I can't deal with whistle, drone or humming sounds. Is there a light bar that exists that won't drive me crazy with extra noise??? Please let me know if you have a light bar and your thoughts on the noise.
Thank you!

Something like this in black to match the soft top will probably be your best bet once they release it.

Sorry, short answer: NO

Light bars make noise because of what the wind does on the back of the cooling fins. We DO sell light bar covers which help prevent that noise. But this isn't just a Bronco thing... it's been an issue with all roof mounted bars across all trucks.

Thank you for the response. It is disappointing because I think they look good and have a purpose but I HATE driving around and listening to rattle, whistling and other noises. You have to put up with enough noise just from having the soft top so I can't do extra noise. Finally found a rattle that was driving me crazy from the soft top plastic box below the latch. A little weather stripping to tighten it up and it was fixed. Have the single a pillar pods and they seem great so far and diode elite fogs. Just like to add one more big light option. Maybe Oracle will come through with there new design for the roof or someone will built a light bar mount for just above the plastic front bumper. Can't pay the $1700 for the baja solution.

the Baja XL Kit doesn't make noise BUT it will mess up the airflow over the soft top which will cause the soft top to flap more
