I am wanting to put some old school looking round, off road lights on a bar on top of the windshield. I'm not a big fan of light bars.
I know there is a mounting point there, and a lot of aftermarket companies are making brackets and mounting bars, but I am worried about just how much weight that can hold.
The last thing I want is this thing to come crashing down onto the windshield or through the top, driving down the interstate.
Anyone on the forum have any specs, or actual experience with a windshield bar with lights?
If you could tell me/us how much your setup weights, that would be helpful too.
Thanks in advance!

I know these probably aren't exactly what you're looking for but it's close.

Baja Designs - Ford Bronco (21) Lighting Kits

It looks like there are several different options for that style of lights on Jeeps so it's only a matter of time before someone comes out with a package that looks exactly like what you want (no need for you to do the engineering, looking at weight capacities).

Prefer the look of old-school housing/lenses. Curious what lights are being used in this concept from Addictive Desert Designs. It's a bit over the top, but a less extreme version of this setup would be my preference.

Those are most likely the Rigid 360-Series (we have them available on our site). That also looks like a bomber bumper, not available for purchase but most likely in R&D along with a Honeybadger Roof rack designed for the Broncos.

Should hold plenty weight as it supports the roof rack when optioned. I like big old light aswell as bars. You can get both spectrums. Lightbar in the bumper and Daylighters up top. I like to have 360 lighting aswell so I dont hit stuff at night.
