S8 Straight LED Light Bar Driving/Combo Clear 40"
Description
The Baja Designs S8 Straight LED Light Bar is a premium 40-inch lighting solution engineered for off-road enthusiasts, overlanders, and SXS riders who demand maximum visibility in challenging conditions. With eight high-performance LEDs per 10-inch section, the S8 delivers an impressive lumen output and a slim, sleek profile that mounts cleanly on virtually any vehicle. The Driving/Combo optic pattern in Clear is designed to push light far down the trail while maintaining a wide field of view, making it ideal for high-speed desert running or technical night driving.
Built on Baja Designs' industry-leading technology, the S8 features CopperDrive circuitry that runs every LED at 100% output, 5000K daylight color temperature to reduce driver fatigue, and full MoistureBlock waterproofing so it can handle rain, mud, and submersion without skipping a beat. Backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty and a 30-day satisfaction guarantee, the S8 is a serious investment in serious lighting.

FAQ
Does the S8 Light Bar come with a wiring harness?
No, the S8 Light Bar does not include a harness. You will need to purchase one separately. For the 40" bar with backlight mode switching, Baja Designs recommends harness 640122. Harness 640115 (On/Off 3-pin) is compatible with single lights in the 10"-30" range only.
What is the difference between the Driving/Combo and Spot beam patterns?
The Driving/Combo pattern balances a focused center beam with a wider spread on the sides, making it ideal for general trail and high-speed off-road use where you need both distance and peripheral coverage. The Spot pattern is narrower and pushes light farther down a single corridor, which is best for very high-speed desert racing where maximum straight-line range is the priority.
What does the amber backlight do?
The amber backlight is a secondary lighting feature built into the S8 bar. It provides a distinct amber glow that can serve as a running light or accent light, and it helps set your vehicle apart with a signature look. To use the backlight with a mode switch, you will need harness 640122 (sold separately).
Is the S8 Light Bar waterproof?
Yes. The S8 features Baja Designs' MoistureBlock technology, which makes it fully waterproof, rain-proof, and even submersible. You can run it through creek crossings, mud, and heavy rain without worrying about water intrusion damaging the unit.
What does uService mean and why does it matter?
uService means the S8's lenses and optics are user-replaceable in the field. If a lens gets cracked or damaged on the trail, you can swap it out with a replacement lens kit rather than replacing the entire light bar. This makes the S8 a much more cost-effective long-term investment for serious off-road users.
What is an ELS Score?
ELS stands for Effective Lighting Score, a Baja Designs metric that rates a light's real-world performance across spread angle, intensity, distance, and total lumen output. It gives you a standardized way to compare different beam patterns and light bar configurations so you can choose the right setup for your specific driving style and terrain.
