Roof Bar Spot-Lights

Oi raz I've discovered a design flaw in yer light bar. The Aerial mounting bracket is welded to the bottom of the light bar. and it hits the slope of the 90's roof if I try to move the bar back so that the lights aren't forward of the windscreen. Yer might want to move the bracket so it's on the top same as the lights. that extra 40mm will make all the difference. Apart from that it's a cracking job.

No it int I just popped i on to see if it fit alright and discovered I'm gonna have ter cut the bracket off and weld it back onto the top of the bar.

I put mine on for 5 secs.....then realised it were pointless with no axle

where abouts is the bar placed? how far forward or backwards?

My bar I place back so the back of the lamps were about 2" off the roof line, but I found the lights lit up the dash and gave excess glare in the cab at night.

Now I have made a spacer bracket and got the moved forward a further 4" this has helped 300% with the glare. I also moved the lamps from below the bar to the top.

this has helped 300% with the glare.

with the lamps roughly level with the edge of the roof. I'll take a picture tomorrow when it's light and post it for yer.
