If it was the 1 am thinking of it would be 4wda action as there was a trip report on it, was a good read with great pics but knowing me I have probably got the wrong trip.

Was it you and Dad that went across the bottom end?

Yeh mate you are right on both accounts. Once I have the mag I will scan it and try and figure out how to upload it and once I get the spoties and have them on I will chuck some up.

Is that the towing fee for the last day we went out... lol., Yeh i cant wait to get them. I'm not sure where to put the older craper one's as i eventually want a winch capable bar and the will mount some on the lower part and on the top. I could out them on my roof rack but not sure if i want such big spotties sticking all the way out in the open, I'm sure I will figure it out I even thought of make a rear support for behind the spare wheel and use my exixsting pencil beem for in between the two new ones but that depneds on if the new ones are only spotties or one of each.

Have finally found spare few min to fit the new spotties and put the sticker on, they both came up well. The lights give off a decent beam, i did not think they were going to be to good as the housing does not seem to be to good a quality, shall see how they go. I still have to fit the old pencil beam in the mid on the top bar but have to wait for the father in-law to make up a bracket so I can mount it on there.

P.S sorry the one pic is so small but that is the biggest one it would let me load.

The pic with the lights doesn't work mate. Also throw the Mac in the bin and use something better suited. I'll just get my flame suit on and duck for cover...
Good story too btw.
