The lightbar is of very high quality. It is ruggedly built and comes with high quality cast aluminium mounting brackets, stainless steel screws and stainless nylock nuts. I ordered online and was most impressed with the standard of the packaging in which the lightbar was shipped. It was highly unlikely to get damaged in transit.
I’ve now installed the lightbar on the bumper bar of my 80-series Landcruiser where it sits secure and free of vibrations. It really lights up the road ahead and to the sides of the vehicle. I’m very happy with its performance. I think HardKorr could improve their product by providing a mounting template to show where to drill holes for mounting the lightbar; I had to fit the mounting brackets onto the lightbar and then measure the distance between the mounting holes in the feet of the brackets, and then translate these measurements to the bumper bar. A template, or simply providing some dimensions, would have simplified the fitting process.
I also bought the Universal Wiring Harness which saved me a lot of time and probably some money over wiring the lightbar from scratch. The wiring harness is of high quality, with plenty of length in the various wires which allowed numerous options for locating the relay within the engine bay and making the various electrical connections required. The supplied piggy-back adaptor, in particular, makes it very easy to connect the lightbar wiring harness into the vehicle headlamp circuit. The wiring harness comes complete with all the necessary connectors pre-wired. HardKorr even appear to have thought ahead by not fitting a connector block to the wires that need to pass through the firewall to the lightbar switch inside the vehicle, which makes it easier to transit the wires through the firewall. I note that the wiring diagram supplied with the Universal Wiring Harness does not match the harness exactly, but it’s fairly easy to work out what needs to go where.

Extremely impressed with Hardkorr light bars. I have a smaller light bar on another vehicle and was so impressed with the quality and what it delivers, I purchased this larger light bar for my X3 BMW. Installed myself to the roof racks on the vehicle, the output is superb, lighting up the road and surrounds perfectly. I travel a lot in the high country, trout fishing, it’s brilliant for those dimly roads. So impressed, my wife has now nicknamed my car ‘RA the Sun God’!

Great light bar with decent spread of ‘spot’ at distance combined with short flood light. Bought these for the rally car (not yet tested in action) to replace two smaller Lightforce Genesis HID inners whilst still running larger outer HIDs for distance – looking forward to seeing how it goes. In the interim, ran as a replacement for the Hella FF4000 compact HID’s (considered the best combo a few years ago)- honestly impressed. Spot distance not as far (as you would expect) but a better spread of the ‘hot spot’ in the centre whilst giving useful flood light close by. If I had to choose only one set I would probably run this lightbar on my 4WD.

Mounting on my nudge bar was not great – the supplied centre legs use very long bolts (with respect the cross sectional area) ended up shearing on removal (don’t normally suffer from cross-threading fixings). As I mounted on a nudge bar relatively thin cross piece (my choice and not a reflection on the lightbar) vibration was an issue. I fabricated a pair of aluminium side braces to the nudge bar mounts and this gave a rock-solid fit. For fitting I would recommend using as many of the provided fixings as possible!

In reply to Tom Slack.

Hi Tom, thanks for the feedback – this is something we’d like to investigate a bit further, if you’d be willing. Bent heat sink fans would not be something we consider to be acceptable in a brand new light bar. If you could send a couple of photos to warranty@hardkorr.com along with your contact details, one of our staff will be in touch ASAP to assist.

Good light for the money, seems to put out a good spread of short to medium distance light which is what I was after.
Just let down a bit by quality control. Bent heat sink fins etc. Not a major functional issue, just looks a bit dodgy and stops the black paint from getting into the crevasses.

Very happy with the quality of this light bar, which is backed up with great service.
Really impressed with the spread of light to the sides of the road and the distance light up the center of the road. A great all round light bar.

Just installed this Lightbar to my new 2020 Hilux. It mounted perfectly behind the grill and the keeps clean look to the vehicle. Very impressed with the lightbar so far, good distance and ample light to the side. Cheers.

I brought the 27″ gen 4 xd700 for my work truck doing interstate transport
Not only does it provide a white light it shines op the road a good distance out I front of the truck but also lights up both edges of the road once it was aligned correctly. It out performs the led headlights that are fitted to the truck.
Very easily installed.
I was that happy with this product I also purchased the 22″ duel row lifestyle bar for my suv.
Highly reccomend this light bar and the great service which I received online was outstanding
