    93 Disco 1 bullbar

    Any idea what brand this bullbar is? Is it a bar made for Land Rover perhaps?

    The centre posts look different to TJM & ARB to my eyes.

    Looks like TJM to me.
    Looks like mine, and when the bulb holders for the indicators rust out(as they all do), and they become useless, you can still get new indicator units from TJM's outlets.
    The price wasn't as high as I expected them to be, maybe $30ish or so too.

    It’s puzzling as the frame seems different to both the arb & TJM that I can find on Google.

    It looks like a very early ARB before they started cutting holes in the uprights.

    The TJM bar shown next to the ARB bar is the later model.
    That model has the indicator and park light repeaters.

    TJM chap reckoned that the bar is TJM(what I have too).
    I asked about the indicator/repeater units, but won't fit the earlier bar.

    The local ARB store didn't sell those indicator units, and they recommended me to go to TJM.

    My money's on TJM.
    The indicators look like the same size & mounting set up as the TJM bar from my Defender:

    Same here, as already said.
    I just assumed mine was ARB, so went to the local ARB(which I usually avoid) as my indicators were both rusted beyond repair to get a couple. They directed me to try TJM.
    The youngish chap didn't know what they were off, just let me know that they're not far away and my best shot at finding them there.

    Brothers D2 has the later TJM bar shown in LRTs second set of images. Those indicator types don't fit our earlier type bars tho.

    I prefer the look of the later type with the thicker central hoop, looks a bit cleaner and more modern, but in actual use, more of a PITA compared to my(and LRTs) earlier type.

    I modded mine welding an extra aerial tab to fit the (external)DAB antenna.
