Thread: Light Bars

Thinking of getting a light bar to mount between the roof rails on my Wildtrak, ( standard full beam isn't grunty enough & is to narrow )

Who makes & where do I get a decent unit ?

Got one spot on one flood on the front bar, serious light from the led compared to factory, thinking about a full bar for the roof as well

ive just put one on the suzuki its a 4500 lumen one that repco and bnt sells its the lower end of the scale but still makes the headlights pretty yellow and dim looking when i switch it off doesnt shine for a million miles but its good for what i paid for it

I picked up one that looks the same as that off Aliexpress for $100. Great for flood lights but not so good for throw. Good quality led spot lights will give you way better distance than a light bar.

Agree, I have about the same reach as my current high beam but the flood and whiteness ofbthe light far exceeds my expectations, have picked up things that would have otherwise cone UN noticed

I too have been looking for something to mount on my nudge bar but after more spot then flood.
Hard to work out whats going to work best

Some Testing Stations won't give you a WOF with them mounted on the nudge/bullbar due to the fact they don't have an ADR rating as a headlight, even if you have it switched manually. Your round or rectangular spots do have the necessary ratings and apply. Typical inconsistencies will apply across the country with the NZTA rulings. Just something to be wary of.

I have been asking around various retailers/auto electricians and wof stations, and yes, there is a lot of inconsistency/confusion about the rules on these

If you are going to mount them, don't attach them above the windscreen. In foggy, raining, and dusty conditions, it will radically reduce your vision. Spots might be ok, but flood will be terrible.

I have hid spots hooked up to high beam and the led bar is a 'work' light on a separate switch.
Just install it with a plug near the light bar and unbolt it and unplug it for warrants then plug it back in afterwards, problem solved
