I did fit a light bar in.
There was 2 parts to trim.
i) There are 2 supports in the bar that prevent the light bar from sitting deep enough into the gap. I had a mate cut them out. took 2min with a plasma cutter. piece of piss.
ii) Not sure what its called - there is rubbed finish at each end of the slit. i cut it with a knife and after i installed the bar, glued the rubbber back on - seamless.
the light bar was a single row 26.5 inch bar (from KC Works). awesome light with 10W cree's and fit perfectly.
I actually had a head on with a tree and this bad arse light took the impact which wrote my car off, ended up in a paddock 50m away and it's still going strong. getting put back on the replacement truck...
the best part about mounting the bar in this split is you need to remove the 'wings' on the guards to get access to the mounting bolts - aka too hard basket for would be thief's.
