Thanks for the kind words! It was my first time using the Dremmel so I took my time. Practicing with the tool for the second reverse light mod.

No rubbing or noise. The hole and rubber grommet are slightly bigger than the diameter of the bar. Since I used a Dremmel instead of a drill, I was able to remove a little plastic at a time and test fit the grommet as I went along until it fit just right.

Yeah I dont know either. Haven't seen that product yet. Dont know how he plans to have the two bars connect. Seeing as his website says it would release in April, don't know if it's still being made. That's why I asked

. May have to modify what I've done here if the cross brace looks worth it.

The z brace will be released in the next week. We just need to add some finishing touches on it and take pictures to show off how it mounts. It shouldnt have any problem mounting with the DIY plates shown above!

Wow, that looks great. I'll think I'll have to go get some of those grommets. Good job.
