    Cheers heaps guys but both are a bit different. Yeah same with these, go in from the back as hole is smaller than light assembly. Looks as yours mounts with screws from the front where mine has the tabs at back. Just had a look at the ARB bar on the work car- mounts with tabs but looks as if the lights are moulded to fit and doesn't have any screws holding it . . .

    You'll get it to fit Rossco just use a big hammer and lots of silicone .

    What GQtdauto said.

    I thought that the Nissan bullbar I have was an ARB made item. Perhaps they have changed the fitting over time, or maybe ARB just copied them??

    Hmmm silicone, i like that idea! I was thinking of locking two nuts together on a longish bolt with the end of the thread pushing it into the opening. A bit fiddly but would work. . Or tacking a nylock bolt to the tab and then putting a bolt through with locknut maybe. .

    Oh the love I have for you Rossco, crawling under my GQ on a gravel driveway in the rain playing with spiders and probably snakes!!!!!

    Doesn't help you anyway as its different mounting 2 my ARB GQ bar which I think is a Deluxe low mount winch bar.

    And the part number for mine which I got from a mate who worked at ARB

    Also found what looked 2 be 161151 and 3116110 stamped into the bar near the passenger side mounting bracket but was hard 2 read so could be wrong

    Far out Toddie you've excelled yourself, champion! ☺

    Yeah that's the same as the ARB one on the work ute, tabs come around from the side. Was thinking could bend the tabs down but now thinking might make a plate type thing that bolts to the tabs and holds it forward into the bar. . .

    So finally got these lights in. Made up some plates that sit behind and clamp them forward into the bar, seem to work pretty well, don't think they're falling out anytime soon. . .

    Afternoon, just replaced the indicator in a TJM bull bar with a led one and it’s so dull you can’t see it. I pulled the bulb out of the indicator beside the light and it works fine (except it’s flashing at double speed) the bull bar indicator is piggybacked of the indicator beside the light . any ideas why ?
