Cybertruck Curved 40" Bumper Off Road Lightbar Question:

[jahansolu]

Hi Folks,

I need your help.
As the thread title suggests, I have a question about T-Sportline's Bumper LED. I asked Grok and it gave me an answer I didn't like .
So now I'm here asking the same question to see if sensibility would come into play here as Grok's response is extremely straight-edged and law abiding.

If I install and calibrate the angle of the light to only light up the road surface, would this solution be road legal in Vancouver, BC? I ask because during snowfalls, the OEM headlights get blocked by snow build up on the bumper which makes it extremely dangerous and hard to see as it cuts visibility - almost to zero!

EDIT: Yes I know, angle not angel - damn autocorrect.

Illegal or wrong? Those are different, if you aren't blinding oncoming traffic a police officer shouldn't have a problem with it. Always play ignorant if you get caught. "Sorry I didn't know it was on, or illegal) I drive with my off-road light bar all the time, I keep it at 1% brightness. I have stopped at stoplights with police sitting across the intersection, I was nervous, but never pulled over. I'll just claim their DRL, there are law that I can find describing what a "DRL" is or where they can be located. I see tons of trucks with cab lights with the amber swapped out for white.

I have this bar installed, it is stronger than the high beams with a larger-axis spread, to install the bar to do as you say would require an intense angle which will most likely prohibit install, it snugs in very well. It abuts the recovery hooks and front camera completely.

This bar is very bright, it will be very obvious.

All that said, they bar is high quality and is plug and play.

Hey does anyone know if this is the light bar that messes with the speakers? I know some people installed aftermarket ones and they had issues with speakers not working, or making a humming noise - something like that.

We’ve had this lightbar for the past few months and haven’t had an issue with it or the speakers.

Its not. That’s the little strip between the headlights where the frunk button is. It has some weird harnes that causes the issue.
This one is just a lightbar that powers off the frunk power supply. Shouldn’t cause any issues .

How can you adjust the brightness?

I think he means he adjusts the oem roof bar to 1%

Did you add the orange tint yourself?

Ah I see. I was about to buy the OEMs for my AWD, but a) the buyer backed out b) the SC would refuse to install it for me - even when I told them the vehicle's software will auto update to reflect the lightbar addition. They kept insisting it would only work on a Cyberbeast - luckily that manager got fired, lol.

I did. Took less than a minute between me and the wife.

Does it also act like a "screen protector"?

It’s just a tint so I’m not sure how much protection is there but assuming it’s better than nothing.
