Q: Light bar installation

asked by on September 30, 2016

Should I go to a Ford dealership and have them install a about 10 inch light bar onto my car? I would like it placed in the center of the roof.

My car has 1400000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.

You should not have to go to a dealer to have the light bar installed. Check around in your area to find a good automotive custom shop or a specified Mustang custom shop. They would be happy to install the light bar for you. Best of luck.
