Ratbag, are you sure it fits in the room you'll have under the main central loop of the bar?

The total length of the lights seems a little too long to fit in between the 2 central vertical tubes... Just a thought...
 
Thanks for the input, Pedro.

Side to side is 700 mm; height from mount to top bar is a little over 150 mm.

So plenty of room for a 506 mm x 107 mm light bar :).
 
^ Thanks for those links, PS. They are both nice looking bars too.

I don't have any problem dealing with fleabay sellers. None at all. I buy quite a few things from eBay sellers. Never had a problem.

However, when the price is much the same, I do like to deal with local businesses.
 
Fair enough Ratbag
 
I have had a long hard look at this one that you posted, PS:

It looks to have far better mounting brackets than the one I was looking at.
From past experience, I am fully aware of the importance of having very rigid and adjustable mounts for any kind of driving light/s

I particularly like the double locking bolts, and the larger area feet. Both will add greatly to the stability of the light, and avoid the necessity for continual adjustment.

If it's crap (which I doubt ... ), less than AUD$100 is hardly the end of the world ...:poke: :iconwink:. I will order one today.

Ships from Altona North, Melbourne too.

It's a little cheaper than the Elinz, but appears to be the same bar unit.

Thanks for your research and help :biggrin:. Gotta love this forum, and all its people ... :lildevil: :cool:
 
OK. Ordered the one from Altona North a moment ago :).

You have to let me know how the light bar turn out. Im still wondering between 3w and 10w cree. But i have to get 2 small light instead of the bar because i need room in the middle to open then bonnet. Cheers.
 
Will do, mate :).

I am about to post the images for the item ...
