Has anybody fitted spotlights to the front of a new shape without using a A-bar. Was thinking of making some brackets that fit between the number plate mounting.

I did, on mine there is a sturdy metal panel about an inch below the top of the bumper, I just made sure the bolts were long enough to go through that to avoid any spotlight wobble.

Colin, that definitely looks like an old, square, historical type of L200

Back to the original question, I'd be interested too. A bars and bumpers are bloody expensive

Just sold mine, didn't like the look of it

Think the front looks better without the bar, still want some extra lights though.

I thought the Mighty Max had upright indicator and sidelight unit on each front corner.

You could always buy one of these light bars:
light bar
although at £310 they are a bit too pricey for me.

That would be perfect if it was about £250 cheaper.
