Thanks!
It still lights up the bed just fine. I could see someone needing more light, but they have those accessory bed lights if that’s the case.
No plans on the side plates. I don’t want to obstruct my view, or ability to reach in the bed.
Long time lurker. Had to post when I saw this thread, tho. The sport bar was one of the very first accessories I ordered. Plan on throwing some KC Daylighters up there, soon.
