Abstract
First adapter () and second adapter () are each separately securable to a respective automotive light bar () at mutually facing lateral light bar end caps (). The adapters () interfit, such as first adapter () having one or more tenons () received in shape-conforming recess or mortise () of second adapter (). The coupling assembly formed from interfit first and second adapters () sufficiently supports a midspan region of conjoined light bars () to permit omission of mounting L-brackets () conventionally required at the mutually facing light bar ends (), thus allowing fewer holes to be drilled in vehicle roof or bumper () and resulting in an aesthetically cleaner presentation of the overall lengthened light bar assembly.
