Reviews for Quadratec Gen II Stealth LED Interior Mount 50” Light Bar for 18-24 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT
Highly recommend! Easy installation, very bright, good quality, and not to mention how good it looks. Worth every penny. I have a 2024 JL so the installation is a little different for removing the dash but YouTube university came in the clutch.
I’m impressed. Packaging kept everything safe for shipping. Left the instructions in the box and used Rob’s YouTube video instead. Hardest part of the install was cleaning the windshield. Wiring and all adjustments were simple.
I took the bar out of the packaging a day prior to install so the rubber gasket had time to relax. No issues with light leaking out from the gasket. Only thing I would change would be swapping out the switch for one that is backlit so it’s easier to see at night.
Good product! Slightly smaller than gen 1 with a MUCH improved light seal and a lower price point. This is what gen 1 should have been.
Works great even with a tinted windshield its bright, super easy to install less than 1hour , would highly recommend
Pre purchased, waited patiently (not really), product arrived on 4/1. Packaging in good shape, contents intact, NO INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS!!!!! YouTube University, found install video for previous generation. 1.5 hours by my self, and I had it done. Very satisfied.
Have always wanted the internal light bar and lucky for me, there’s an updated version! I snagged this one and with the new lower price point, it was well worth the wait! Install was a breeze with the supplied instructions. There is virtually no light bleed in to the cab with no reflection off the windshield. Really love how wide the flood pattern is on the white and amber modes.
This light bar is very bright and pretty easy to install if you have basic mechanical skills. There is very little light bleed into the cab and it’s way to operate with the switch on the bar itself.
I have e this unit 4 stars because the rubber gasket that is attached to the bottom of the light came loose and began to fall off after the first multiple hour use. Quadratec replaced it with a supposedly upgraded gaskets but it looks the same so we’ll see.
One other thing, at a traffic light you may have to bend your head sideways to see the traffic light.
Would give 3 stars but customer support gained back a star level. I went through x2 replacements off the bat prior to final install.
First bar came with a set of LEDs that were out. Quadratec replaced under warranty. Second bar came damaged (end was bent). The packaging was decently intact so it seems it wasn’t from the delivery service. Quadratec replaced again. Third bar came and I installed without issue.
Light output is good but because of the flood pattern it would be super beneficial to also pair with spot or combo beam light pods.
Quadratec support was excellent through the replacement process. That alone will have me returning for Quadratec products.
All in all, I would still recommend this if you’re looking for a budget friendly, flood-oriented light bar, that doesn’t add drag or wind noise, and doesn’t require an aftermarket harness/switch.
I upgraded from the Gen I Stealth Lightbar to the Gen II Stealth Lightbar and let me see, the swap could not have been any easier. The wiring harness from the lightbar to the connection behind the glovebox is now a quick disconnect and you can easily run that wiring harness first and get it connected and then plug it into the lightbar while you are mounting it. The new lightbar does an incredible job of preventing light leak, there is almost none and it is definitely brighter! My only gripe would be that I will the lights extended from edge to edge like the Gen I version, but it still looks pretty good! The updates definitely make the slightly narrower design worth it.
Just purchased this light bar because I like the fact that it was on the inside and not exposed to the elements outside. I read the reviews which were all very positive about how this design was better than the first design. I felt fairly confident and excited when I order it. Once it came in I installed it the next day. While the install of the wiring was super simple, until you got to plugging it into the light bar itself. Mine was a pain in the A**. The directions to install were different then how he did it in the video. I would do his way. Looked way easier as mine kept coming unplugged can I just didn't have the room to fully seat it. With that said it wasn't terrible. Now when it comes to installing the light bar itself and getting it positioned correctly and the gaskets to actually seal. I had to have a buddy help just to keep enough pressure on the light bar so I could tighten it up. It took multiple attempts and could tell it was not sealed all the way and a little wobbly. We finally got it to be somewhat not as wobbly as bad and just settled with it. There is definitely some light bleed through on the very ends by the "A" pillars and around the center by the rear view mirror. I don't have the ACC. The light itself is very bright and it's nice not having to have another switch to wire in. Not I'm just trying to figure out a way to fill some of the voids I have. BTW I have a 2021 Unlimited sport. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong trying to get it to seal better but I'm open to any suggestions.
