The Baja Designs RTL-S 30" single straight light bar (MPN 103004) is a rear-facing LED bar from the RTL family, built around a clear hard-coated polycarbonate lens and a black aircraft-grade aluminum housing. It pairs a red running and brake function with two independently controlled amber sections and a white work/cargo light in one 30-inch bar. Owners on user forums describe the RTL-S as the RTL version that lets the amber lights run separately from the red taillights, which makes it a practical pick for chase vehicles, trail rigs, and UTVs that need dust lighting or turn-signal visibility. Compared with a generic bar, the housing is rated IP69K and IK10 and is described by the manufacturer as exceeding MIL-STD810G testing, so it is built for washdowns, mud, and rough trail impacts.
Fitment is universal, so the bar mounts to bumpers, racks, roll cages, and bed panels rather than to a single model. The integrated track lets you adjust the hardware within the bar's 30-inch width, and the manufacturer recommends about 25 inches between mounting hardware. Keep in mind that the bar ships without a wiring harness; the manufacturer specifies the 640134 RTL-S Turn Signal Harness for the amber turn-signal function. Search terms buyers commonly use include "RTL-S 30 inch LED light bar 103004," "amber turn signal rear brake light bar," "UTV rear chase light bar," and "Baja Designs RTL-S wiring harness."
No. The manufacturer states the RTL-S bar does not include a wiring harness and specifies the 640134 RTL-S Turn Signal Harness as the add-on for turn-signal wiring.
The manufacturer says the amber sections offer individual controls, or they can be configured as turn signals for on-road driving when paired with an external flasher or an sPOD-style switch panel. Owners on user forums describe tapping into rear trailer wiring so the amber sections light with the left or right turn signal.
Owners on user forums report that the running light must be powered for the brake function to work. This matches the manufacturer's wiring notes, which state the brake wire only functions when the running wire is receiving power.
The manufacturer specifies an ideal distance of 25 inches between the mounting hardware.
Mounting is a straightforward bolt-on job with the included stainless hardware. Slide the 1/4-20 hex-head hardware into the track, set the spacing to about 25 inches, and mount the bar to a vertical or horizontal surface using the provided washers and nyloc nuts. Tighten until the bar can no longer shift side to side. The manufacturer also offers vehicle-specific mount kits for the RTL 30-inch bar, such as a Can-Am rear tail light bolt-mount kit, which can simplify installation on those platforms. Wiring is the more involved step: the 4-wire side carries ground, running, amber/brake, and white power, while the 2-wire side carries the turn-signal power that should be spliced into the matching directional circuits. Owners recommend putting the white work light on a switch. Plan for the 640134 harness and an external flasher or switch panel before you start, and check the manufacturer's installation sheet for the 103004 for the exact pinout.
