Ill put up a pic tomorrow for you 3d we have no power atm and my phones on 3% but I basically put the rack on the roof and turned on the light bar and moved the rack back untill the bar stopped lighting up the windscreen
couple of drops of rain,lol. Thanks Mega I used one of my 36 watt jobs to figure out where the bar will go.
Its in front doh and slightly down so the top of the bar is level with the rack floor.
Whats your thoughts on mounting two 36watt bars sideways, I think the awning
may get in the road .

Heres my flag bracket easy enough to do as a bolt on application.
For a bolt on I would cut the 20x20x1.5 by 200mm long I flared the end with a 3/4 plumbing tool
then all you need is two 3/16th or 1/4 bolt to bolt it inside the upright,
Treat any unpainted surfaces use only zinc coated bolts.
There you go a 5 min flag holder ,drill your first hole 150mm from the top
then another 25 mm spacing, Allow room under for water to escape

thoughts on this as a deflector its perforated stainless, just trying to use material lying around.
only going to pop it on at this stage. Will also put a small piece each side of the upright as well.
I can fit those bulls eye led as clearance lights on this deflector

Seems pointless, it won't do the job you want it to do
Ah just remembered I have a nice piece of alloy checker plate that will do the job nicely.
Nearly done , just light bar brackets which I'll do tomorrow and the awning.
the wheel hoist is going to be a chore I'll nut it out over a few cold ones
