Light Roof bar 6 Spot Lamps/Guards Discovery 1 & 2 200Tdi 300Tdi Td5 V8 CB Mount | eBay

PS - I don't work for them or know them - just their stuff is normally good

I have seen that one on ebay and I do like it. After checking out the original item it comes out to £120 so I may well go for that. Are the lights themselves any good?

StuRox · Feb 18, 2014

The lights are fine, as they are what I am running

sergeantcookie · Feb 18, 2014

Sweet. Are they easy to wire in? I already have wiring in place as my bull bar had lights on but I have taken it off but left the wiring in place.

StuRox · Feb 18, 2014

If you are handy with wires and relays, yes!

You need a circuit for each pair of lights, using a 12v relay is the best way. I have mine wired to come on either with main beam, or on as separate work lights, or off altogether.

Got my switches on the top console:

Im looking at the set that come with wiring so it may make it easier. Which way have you routed the cables from the bar and are the cables hidden in the bar?

Tidy job by the way!

StuRox · Feb 18, 2014

I have all the cables hidden inside the light bar, you can sort of see in this pic how I have the wires coming out of the light bar into some bullet connectors (to make it easy if I ever need to remove the bar

) and then down into the cabin just above the drivers door....

All you need is some decent wire and few automotive 12v relays and some switches.

I have also drilled the lights and put in 2x LED's that come on with the side lights, and again have all the wiring inside the light bar for a nice and neat job - takes a lot longer, but worth it I reckon...

they are not as blue/purple in real life - just the way the camera has taken the pic.

and this is it 'just' on side lights....(also put LED's in my front driving lamps too

)

Wow I like a lot. When are you coming to do mine

StuRox · Feb 18, 2014

Cheers, would love to but the 300 odd mile round trip puts me off - although I do like staying at Crewe Hall hotel which I don't think is far from your location

sergeantcookie · Feb 18, 2014

Perfect. I only live 10 mins from there :thumbup: lol.

StuRox · Feb 18, 2014

Sorted - you sort me and me mrs a couple of nights in there, and I'll wire in your light bar

sergeantcookie · Feb 18, 2014

Sorted. Though I have no idea how much it will be. I know it isnt cheap though lol

StuRox · Feb 18, 2014

Nope the last time we stayed there, it certainly ate into my wallet

sergeantcookie · Feb 18, 2014

Ive never been

StuRox · Feb 18, 2014

sergeantcookie · Feb 18, 2014

Yea a lot of football players go there

sergeantcookie · Feb 18, 2014

As soon as I sell my bull bar ill get those lights. Thanks for your help

StuRox · Feb 18, 2014

No worries, but all joking aside, if you need any pointers in wiring etc, give me a shout when you are fitting and will see if I can help, or point you in the right direction.
