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.
So mine can’t do that. Below about 8% only the ditch lights stay on and blow about 5% only one of them. Usually the passenger side but it vairies.

Do you have an OEM light bar?

Yes. With the ditch lights.
unfortunately on my AWD that wouldn’t be a warranty item even if there is something wrong with it. Happy it works ok above 8%.
also, after what I went through to stick that thing on…no way I’m removing it to troubleshoot.

I’ve never checked, but would 8% be too bright for DRLs? what I would really love is a film to defuse the light, so it looks more like the actual DRL.

I use this film from vivid but there is a darker version and if color just isn’t your thing there are many many option.

They are cheap and take about two minutes to do on that long straight strip so it can’t hurt to experiment.
they also just peel right off leaving nothing behind

All that said, they bar is high quality and is plug and play.
I watched the video install, and you have to splice Into the wires. Are these dedicated auxiliary wires? Most of these add-ons I’ve done with jeeps you’ve used a t-tap.

Yes, light bar is 48v as well. Activates via screen [Outlet&Mods/PowerFeedFrunk]

Any clue how much power the stock lightbar draws? I should be able to tap into the 400W for the roof as well as the frunk power's 400w for 800W total?
