Description
If you want the benefits of additional driving lights without the cost, weight or appearance of a bull bar, our Behind Grille Light Bar Mount is the perfect solution. Designed specifically for the Next-Gen Ford Ranger and Ranger Super Duty, this bracket allows you to mount a Narva 10" EX2 or EX2-R Double Row Light Bar neatly behind the factory grille. This maintains the vehicle’s clean, factory styling while improving nighttime visibility for touring, daily driving and off-road adventures.
Designed, manufactured and powder coated on the Sunshine Coast, this vehicle-specific bracket installs using factory mounting points plus one supplied bolt and nyloc nut for a strong and secure installation. Manufactured from premium stainless steel with a textured black powder-coated finish, it is built to withstand Australia’s harsh touring conditions while providing a straightforward DIY installation. Mounting the light behind the grille may slightly reduce its overall light spread compared with an externally mounted light bar, but it provides a sleek and protected alternative to fitting a bull bar.
Key Features
Hidden Factory Appearance – Mounts neatly behind the factory grille, adding driving-light performance without the bulky appearance of a bull bar.
Vehicle-Specific Design – Designed specifically for the Next-Gen Ford Ranger and Ranger Super Duty, with compatibility expected for the Next-Gen Ford Everest but not tested in-house.
Simple DIY Installation – Uses factory mounting points plus one supplied bolt and nyloc nut for a strong and straightforward installation.
Premium Stainless Steel Construction – Manufactured from stainless steel and finished in a textured black powder coat for excellent durability and corrosion resistance.
Designed for Narva 10" EX2 Light Bars – Engineered specifically for the Narva 10" EX2 and EX2-R Double Row Light Bars to help minimise obstruction behind the grille. Full-sized spotlights and alternative lighting products are not recommended due to their increased potential to restrict airflow.

Light Bar Options
Narva 10" EX2 Double Row Light Bar
The Narva EX2 combines a powerful hybrid beam with a UV-resistant polycarbonate lens, diecast aluminium housing and IP68/IP69K protection. It also features lightweight, corrosion-resistant composite brackets, eight interchangeable trim colours and Narva’s seven-year no-fault warranty.
Narva 10" EX2-R Double Row Light Bar
The Narva EX2-R offers the same performance, construction and protection as the EX2, with the addition of ADR/ECE-approved front position lights. These lights are RGB enabled when paired with Narva’s separately available 12V RGB Bluetooth® Controller, with coloured modes intended for off-road use only.
Important Cooling Airflow Disclaimer
Ford advises that accessories and vehicle additions must not intrude into the designated engine cooling airflow envelopes. The Behind Grille Lightbar Mount positions the light bar within an area Ford identifies as sensitive to airflow restriction, where an obstruction may reduce engine and transmission cooling performance.
Installing any accessory behind the grille may restrict airflow and could affect vehicle cooling performance, particularly under high-load conditions such as towing, off-road driving, prolonged low-speed operation or hot weather. Customers should consider their vehicle configuration and intended use before installation. Installation and use are at the customer’s discretion, and Accelerate Off-Grid Touring cannot guarantee that the accessory will not affect cooling performance. Refer to Ford’s current Body and Equipment Mounting Manual and consult a Ford dealer or suitably qualified technician if unsure.
