    I was toying with the idea of making a Mount to house the hi lift across the bonnet, up near the window..

    I would never thought of that!
    What made you think of the bonnet as an alternative spot from the usual roof rack and rear bar?

    I wouldn't. I have been in a car with one of these, and you loose more visibility than you would think. On road it is fine. Off road where you are craning your neck to see exactly where that hole your wheel is about to fall into is, it's a pita!

    I have seen some mounted on front of the bulbar, but I'm not sure about the legalities with it. I would think it would be like fishing rod holders and not allowed due to sharp edges/protruding pieces

    Cheers

    Yes one thing I was concerned about was legality with the height of it. I remember seeing a thread about scoops and what's legal..
    Ill have a play and take some shots. I'm a tall fella but I do see your thoughts mate..

    I've never liked big bulky things hanging off the roof rack, and bull was just a no go.. Cops would have field day.. Lol
    I was thinking about it for a while then I saw a jeep running it around town and thought that's not to bad..

    For those that have a reversing camera, or a fancy screen in their patrol. Why not mounta camera underneath you car that shows you the 2 front wheels. You can switching on at any time, and see the track underneath your car.
