    Front passenger seat Grab Bar

    Hi Guys,

    Looking to add a grab bar to the roof of the front passenger seat of the fender - more of a habit thing for the girl when she jumps in and potentially when I scare the hell out of her with my dodgy driving.

    Has anyone got some tips on how to do this the most effective way? eg what are the most sturdy plugs without damaging the roof mouldings?

    Probably on an old post but cant find anything - appreciate any tips

    Cheers

    Bob

    It's for the rear wiper/washer alright, but it's not a wire - it's the water pipe Even so, as long as you move it out of the way before drilling, there shouldn't be a problem.

    I picked up some 2nd hand handles like in the rear of a Defender for $10 each from British Offroad, and just screwed them in myself. Mind you, I also removed the factory lining, so not sure if that would work for you.
