Default Hunter Bull Bar Question

Hello all,

Well, I'm new to this forum and have a couple of questions regarding a hunter bull bar for a 2005 1500 Ram Quad Cab SLT. Does anyone have some good pictures of one installed from all angles, mainly the sides and the mounts? Also, was the installation instructions from ebay a pain in the a$$?

I just purchased another bar, and am actually not going to install it, I'm being picky, I know, but I changed my mind after trying to put it on the truck.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...%3AIT&viewitem=

This is the one I purchased, and again am just not really thrilled about it. I need to be honest I guess. If anyone out there likes this particular one and wants to work a deal with me, please do, I have no idea how to explain to the wife why I will have two boxes sitting on the garage floor with two bars and only one truck

Thanks,
Nut

I should also add, the bar is black. I seemed to have left that one out. Again, the bull bar I am looking to sell is one from APS products. Good solid bar, just not what I was after. I am however really interested to see a hunter bull bar installed. I'm dying to get my lights on it and out on the road

Not really the look I am after, but for functionality, I give it kudos

It's a nice looking one, but I dunno. I want to have the functionality of one as opposed to solely for looks. It seems like a nice price for the size of it though...
