What kind of lights have you got attached to the bull bar?

And how much difference do you find that they make to night driving?

Any chance of a picture of your rear end [ so to speak...ha ha]

It quit snowing and I got out to the garage to grab a couple of pics of the rear bar -

Hopefully it will repel some of the patina of life one acquires in parking lots, etc.

as for lights fitted to bull bar, I cant say at present as I havent yet wired them in.ha ha but when I had same lights on my vw camper they helped tremendously, I had them wired into my full beam on that.

I await your report. I've seriously wondered about some driving lights for some years. Night driving on Highland roads with deer all over the place - usually just out of sight - is a bit of a pain. I did see a Berlingo van with some driving lights, but it's not the easiest mod to do, since it requires some sort of bar across the front. Bull bars look like quite a nice way of doing it. They might also give my Berlingo some protection from marauding stags!

in my case its marauding sheep....ha ha ha or should I say ba ba ba

[Northman]

Well, to be honest, it is marauding sheep in my case as well. They wonder all over the roads up here. I've hit three in the past 10 years - all with different vehicles.

But I tend to worry more about deer. The dents that sheep put in the car are pretty small by comparison.

then def get a sheep bar, and put your lights on it.

Quick question for PCH - what make is your bike rack? been after one for my mk1 but not sure which would be the best fit. Yours looks really good. Cheers.

its a Fiamma that was made for my VW T4 but I just cut approx 3 " of the two upright bars, re drilled where tha clamps go and "bobs your uncle". So well worth finding second hand VW one or maybe new.
About £130.00 new, but its locked on rear of your car all the time, so cant be nicked, and very easy to put your bikes on after a ride. Especially when your knackered and just wanna drive home.
