Hi guys. Have just fitted an OM soft nudge bar to the disco. It looks great. Stage two is fitting the spolights...and the problems start. My mate has a snide one fitted to his disco, and its looks identical except compared to the OM part its crap. However he has two recessed marks on the base of the bar which can be drilled out to fit the lights upright. Thats not an option on my mine as this bar is bendy rubber. Two extended lugs are molded underneath the top of the nudge bar and this is the point that can be used to fix the lights, but they will upside down.. I can live with that. But..if I remove the plastic bungs in the lugs ( no need to drill ) and mount the lights they will be pointing skywards ! Is there a kit that I am missing to go between the underside of the bar and the bolt on the bottom of the spotlight ? I have tried Hella who supplied the lights..less than helpful and as aftermarket fitting anything over here is not tolerated Landrover had never seen the nudge bar before, and the idea of spotlights !!!!
 
I would think like the D1 (A) bar yours will have a metal plate with pre-drilled holes buried in the foam to support additional lamps, that's if your bar is a genuine Land Rover part.

My camera has died ! However it is a genuine part. Number STC53174. The bar that Discool shows is not the same. He has them mounted on the lower bar.This bar on mine is floppy. The two lugs are on the underside of the upper bar.
 
Yes they would point skywards. The lamps have the normal single point to fix to the surface, but the lugs hang down from the underside of the top bar. The only way to attach them is at 90 degrees to the top bar. Hence my thought that there must be some kind of additional bracket that fits the bar allowing the lamps to be mounted verticaly.
