    Looks promising, they mention the ADR's are undergoing review so hopefully not long for every state to be in line with the new technology. I haven't heard of any official viewpoint here in Vic, but I also see hundreds of light bars a day and have never heard of anyone getting done for it. I imagine the police are using a common sense approach (is that even possible for VICPOL???).

    They are changing the Australian Design Rule relating to lights so I assume it will be all states, this notice is to allow for the lights until the new rule kicks in.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    But do your rules state "all driving lights infront of driver" already??
    If so you can bolt anything up there and not be legal, New regs or not..
