To many lights?

Can you have to many spotlights on a landy?
I want 4 roof spots(for looking cool..er..I mean forwards) and x2 rear ones( for looking backwards)
But I also want some A bar round lights.

There is no limit to the amount of lights you can have on a land rover, you may however have difficulty finding room for all the alternators needed to power them.

:lol:
You mean I can have more alternators!!.......cool

couple of the guys i run out with have between 10-12 lights each running on the original alternators but works for them.

one looks pretty good, has used the smaller oval driving light style with 6 on the roof and 6 on the bonnet connected to 2 separate switches on the dash.

is he doing the lighting for U2's next tour?

just slap a bigger alternator on or fit a second one...... if you have a 200tdi without aircon you have an instant alternator mount on top of the timing case, when my cousin fitted a disco 200 into his series 2 he didn't have anywhere to fit the alternator (all the room in original position was taken up) so we made a mount to fit it on top of the timing case...... i noticed that recently someone has started selling the same thing we made.........should have patented it :doh it only took them about 4 years to catch up

do all these lights actually enhance the driving experience?

ive got a pair of spots on the front bumper... they came with the car..but to be honest .with bright bulbs the headlights are adequate

Many a time have I nearly run over a rodent on a country lane whilst driving at night.

With your new lights you might hit it!

didnt have any probs on my fender running 100amp alt and split charge system

I havent fitted any on my 90, but had it on the disco, and despite all the **** taking of having too many lights, they are welll worth it when driving around at night on Salisbury plains...

as well as too many lights why not fit those anti car sickness straps from the seventies behind rear wheels too

That what I'm talking about, compare it to the standard fender, not only can it not be seen in the dark, ie not safe, it looks far less cool

one from earlier in the day
