Hey everyone - looking for a bit of advice.
When my Bronco finally arrives (someday) I'm going to buy this roof rack: Bronco TrailRax Modular Roof Rack (TRMR Rack) 4-Door
The question I have is - do I but the version with the cutout for the light bar/lightbar or do I use podlights for extra lighting?
I've been told by people who seem to know a lot more about offroading than I do that a lightbar mounted above the windshield isn't the best idea. Was told it's noisy and highlights all the chips/dirt on the windshield.
Pod lights (plus the extra lights installed in the fog light section of the mod bumper) were suggested as a much better alternative. But I wanted to put this out to the collective wisdom on here. You know what they say about opinions...and I'd rather get more than just a couple.
For reference - I live in Colorado and do plan on spending a lot of time offroading and dispersed camping in the mountains (nothing crazy like Black Bear pass - thinking more along the lines of Yankee Hill).
Thanks for any/all help and suggestions!
