I have hanma LEDs. They can be found on eBay. Cheap and work great. Never had one problem. 35,000 lumens. Just as bright as ridgids. I have had them side by side...

If you don't have a roof basket take a look at http://shop.hooliganoffroadengineeri...r-mount-LB.htm it will let you mount almost any size and brand light bar you could want.

Detours also just came out with a LED light bar holder that actually attaches to the factory roof rack but hangs the light at the top of the windshield... key fact to his design is it does NOT hang off A pillars to get smashed into trees...

I figured he wanted a longer mount, that way it mounts in the same fashion and holds the bar in the same spot but the mounting location is just further back on the roof.
Oh and Olympus is awesome!
