A Bar Spotlights

So guys i was wondering if someone could help here. I am looking at fitting a pair of old Lazer lights to the front of my FFRR and wondered if i could ride the spot lights off the main beam of the headlight? I suppose i think if it worked off the main headlight on the Defender it should on the RR, will this work?

Also has anyone fitted a full size 48" roof led light bar to their RR yet and if so how and where did you get the light bar from?

Many thanks

Lights have a dedicated fitting wiring kit sir. That way you can turn them off when either not necessary on the road or weather dictates Thumbs Up

If you are going to do it, I suggest fitting a relay into the main beam wiring to detect current and activate it to switch on the spots. Whether this will impact on the operation of the main beams and ECUs I do not know....

As Craig says, better to use separate wiring/circuit/switch .

As i said above... LR make a L322 spotlight wiring kit specifically to fit LR spotlights (or any for that matter) which includes a switch and all the connections... If it were me, i would purchase and fit that sir...

Don't think you would want the lightbar on the roof on much of the time anyway, lights up there cause so much glare off the bonnet that they don't help much whilst moving and most of the time make it worse.... Pete

I am guessing with that comment you don't like the SVR look alike and especially with the light bar?

Lol fair enough! Could always do a matt black wrap on the bonnet to reduce the glare I guess....

Have a look at EDF post on the EDF shopping cart. He put a really top notch light bar on for the Swedish winters, he may be able to give you some pointers on do's and don'ts Smile MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
