I know it is an iffy idea, but I am looking to make a light bar for my 99 xlt. I do not want to use the crossbars, or the roof rack tracks. I am trying to put it very far toward the front of the roof. I was curious if anyone had good tips on securing it to the roof. I was thinking a bunch of sheetmetal screws w/ rubber washers to keep the rainwater from leaking through. I do not know if the screws would be enough to keep the light bar from moving around, especially on bumpy terrain. Anyone have any tips on mounting the bar to the sheetmetal roof? I am open to any suggestions, whether it be screwing it down or securing it some other way. Thanks in advanced guys.
