My LED light bar

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationNo eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationI thought I would post up details of the light bar I fitted last week which might be useful to someone. I have bolted it to my ORA winch plate where my recovery points are (I never intended for it to house a winch!). I have had to fit spacers to get it to peer over the top of the plate but it fits nicely enough to not have to trim the bumper.





This is the one I got from eBay:



It has been wired up using the exact same configuration detailed in this thread: bigjimny.com/index.php/forum?view=topic&catid=7&id=45978

I bolted the relay onto the inner wing using one of the bolts that holds the washer bottle on.



The wiring loom goes through the big grommet that the main loom goes through, but I made a small hole for these wires as the main loop is taped up behind the grommet, but I taped these wires as well to seal the back up.



The earth for the light bar is attached to the radiator securing bolt at the top of the radiator frame.

The dashboard switch is just a universal fog light switch off eBay. This one fits nicely in the switch panel and the dimensions are just right.





The trigger for the lights is off the high beam wire off the back of the headlight itself. To do this, splice into the right hand terminal wire as if you were looking from the back of the headlight plug.

I have been out night laning and despite sitting in the recess of the bumper it throws out good light levels, especially the flood beam, which lights up the intermediate area very well. The spot beam is good for about 50m, so I will probably throw on some spots onto the roof or even a bigger light bar!. Overall I am very pleased with it and we are well worth the investment, especially for only £60.

Here are some photos of the difference between low beam, main beam and the LED light with high beam on. They are from a camera phone so to be honest the quality is not great and they don't do it justice.

You can see a bit more of the trees being lit up.

Much more of the immediate and surrounding area are lit up.

Looks good, looking to fit something similar to my roof but trying to find something long enough for the right price with an easy method to a softtop lol.

Given me some clues for my spot light fitting I'm doing so thanks.

I wanted to fit a light bar on the roof (and may still do) but I thought it might be a bit showy so decided to be a bit more discrete.

Are the brackets adjustable width ways?

I want to replace my two driving lamps, but ideally use the holes that are already cut in the bumper.

Nice one Justin, lots of helpful pics ......

Yes along the whole width of the light.
