I think you'll need new brackets. The ones it come with mounts to the crash bar and isn't visible. I know rough country sells some

When I had my stock bumper on I had a 30" in the same spot, I got the rigid brackets off eBay, all you have to do is cut the lower grill out, unbolt 2 bolts on each side of the aluminum cash bar, put the brackets on, bolts on, mount the bar, wire it up and your good to go

Above the windshield is gonna give you a blinding reflection off the hood at night, I'd keep it on the front bumper or set the light bar back where the light won't hit the hood, my lights are on my front bumper and it's definitely the way to go

I did this to mine. I got it from rough country. The light bar and brackets came with it.. What do you think?
Took all of about 15 min. to mount.

I bought and wired the switch separately. $341 for everything.
