Does it make a lot of noise now ? How many light covers are you needing? I thought someone tried to get them before but couldn't though not sure. Might be putting one on mine so wondering how much extra wind noise Tom |

part # 5HZO7RXFAF light bar covers cheapest I found in a quick search was 23.31 each, I will make you a better deal than that if you need all four, brand new still in the box |

when i got my jeep, 2 of them were broke, the clips were broke, so i only had 2 good ones. but my buddyworks at a used car lot and snagged 4 of them off a libby renegade for me i figured the wind goes around the lights and the black light bar acts like a wind scoop, with the covers on i figure itll get better aerodynamics somewhat, eh every little bit helps |

Alot of information here, thanks! Mine did not come with covers. (second owner) I have a decent amount of wind noise from the general area of the lightbar, however it could be due to my sunroof. (it seems to make more noise closed than open!!) I was thinking it could be possible that adding the covers could reduce wind noise. tommudd, i've never not had the lightbar so i don't rally know for sure if it makes noise or not =( RAYMAN975, i'm thinking the same thing, you should know however, that two blind retards is a bit more dangerous than one retard :P Anyway, at twenty dollars per, they need to do something other than sit pretty! I think in some states you have to have forward facing lamps covered or turned up when not off road. |

I don't know if miine makes any noise because my tires are to loud for me to notice any roof noise. I am sure they would be a tiny bit quieter with the covers on |

I couldn't tell either way with mine. Even if they were louder w/ them off I wouldn't care, its a jeep. Plus it looks better with them off! |

Since it seems they are somewhat expensive, and seem to do little or nothing in the way of noise reduction, they can go to hell! Thanks again. |
