Fitted a 27 watt 9 led , reverse light to the LHS side of the sports bar today , pretty awesome , and makes reversing in the dark piss easy . and yes its hard wired into the reverse light only

have you got a pic with out it blinding us?
I was thinking of putting two slim 7" leds on the sports bar, but i wouldnt mind seeing how the one looks.
Cheers.
 
thanks steve, I like the mount how it wraps around the bar, better then drilling holes in it.
Did that come with the light? or do you if they can be purchased separate

Its a GME 76 mm stainless spotlight bracket painted satin black , and their expensive buggers $ 48.00
 
Wired up the winch today , mounted the control box using a bit of box section alloy , then a VT crappadore lower radiator hose sacrificed its self to protect the cabling rubbing on the ARB bar



 
Didn't the bar come with two rubber grommets to go in the holes where the cze go through?? I have a few spare if you need them.
Also watch having the rope coming out and hooking onto the bar, there is a chance that it will get sandwiched and the bar itself will act like a guillotine cutting it.
I have scooped up dirt and rocks and crap due to how far the ARB bar sticks out.
 
Thanks Nathan , but no it didn't , but the radiator hose protects the cables where they enter the bar and up at the control box too , it actually worked out quite well , as these generic winches aren't designed for ARB bars , all in all iam pretty happy with the way its all fitted up and works , aslo i brought the ARB fair lead plate . so less hassles there , and the chopped up VT hose fits perfect in the holes
 
It all looks neat mate.
I know what you mean about the fairlead, my original fairlead i had to trim the ends, i have since bought a tigerz11 off set fairlead for this Nav and it went straight in with no trimming.
 
ARB make a thick rectangle chunky one that fits their bars and takes up the room a roller fairlead would , looks way better than the gimpy alloy one that's supplied with the winch
 
Pretty much finished , except the custom roof rack , sorry the trucks dirty lol:wash_truck:, so clean pics will have to wait
