Does anyone have these? You know from the front of the wings to the top of the windscreen to protect from bushes. How do i make them/where do i buy from/what do i search for, how are they fitted?
Thanks

They're called bush wires, iirc they're not road legal. Don't see many trucks wearing them nowadays, used to be the "in thing".

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!
