Damn fine trade. I’ll always question the judgment of anyone mounting a light bar on the roof and even more so for one mounted behind the sunroof.Sold the light bar this thing came with and used the proceeds for STEK PPF full front bumper, hood, headlights, side mirrors and door cups. Ceramic window tint on front two windows to match rear. And the owner at the paint protection place threw in some matte black vinyl wrap for the grill. Couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Okay I’m done modifying this thing..for now

Apparently I am just very dumb.
My ARB worked the whole time, it just didn't "kick on" without me having a hose draining the pressure from the compressor. It works perfectly fine and isn't tapped into any fuse box.
Also my cigarette lighters didn't work because the "PWR OUTLT" 15amp fuse in my drivers side kick panel gave up the ghost through no fault of my installer. This is the fuse that manages the cigarette lighters, not the one labeled "CIG". The ACTUAL power outlet in the rear of the cruiser worked the whole time... Yes, I purchased a power probe immediately afterwards.
Just bad timing and my anger getting the best of me it would seem.
And the whistling at high speeds is gone after getting rid of that damn light bar lol
Pulled out all the speakers on my 2017. Focal kits in the doors and pillars and jammed 4" JBLs in the dash. Subwoofer in the trunk. Boom!
How's the Focal upgrade sound? Been looking at the different Inside Kits for a direct swap option.
do you know if the same focal will fit in the 2018 LX570?
No! That's an instant ban from the forum. It is known.

A pelican BX90R fits like it was made for the 200 series.

Actually, I am very impressed with the wood on the garage doors. Colorado climate is not kind to such construction.
New shoes today. Went with the less aggressive sidewall out as I think it looks better on the LC. 285/75r17 in C load for a bit more comfort on the road. Coming from half worn KO2s, these are instantly quieter. Need to figure out the optimal psi but 2 miles in and they are great.
Out of curiosity why did you want to remove them?
What backroads if you don't mind sharing? Not a part of NC I recognize (although there are a definitely few of those)130 miles of backroad wanderings.

1. I personally didn't care for the look of a giant light bar (especially the amber) on the roof. felt like the car looked like a state trooper lol.
if it was a slimmer all white one, i probably would have kept it. i did think about changing the lens on outer two to white...but decided against it.
2. use case. while the car is outfitted for offroad use, it's gonna be used more in town and a powerful lightbar has zero use for me in a large city.
3. maybe less wind resistance/noise?
here's how it would have looked without the amber..
Maybe because it was Virginia
Just wanderings between Roanoke and Hillsville hunting some trout streams and hiking trails. No real route but rather taking random turns and seeing where it ended up, adjusting to keep heading generally west.
