I decided to install a 52" led curved light bar.
The brackets that came with the light bar from Amazon did not work at all
I did get new brackets from eBay to fit a 99 to 06 Chevy 1500

of course, it gave me an excuse to buy a new tool but I needed it to install
the rivet nuts for the brackets to bolt to the van

Looks good. Who would have thought that light bar envy was a thing. I think my 36 inch light bar just stopped working
Thanks, TurnNburn I didn't know that light bar envy was a thing either

Well here is an update: After driving around today there is a whistle vibration harmonics! it's loud enough and annoying to drive u crazy. At this time I'm researching some solutions and will post the results
I had to add a couple of bends in them to fit the Astro and center the lightbar
yes, I did. I bought some rubber pieces that are shaped like the curve of the lightbar and glued them to the fins of the light bar and no more noise
