You won't get a rego sticker as they no longer exist.

Why not use the bull bar off the blue disco, easy to modify to fit a winch.

Partly non airbag to airbag issue, mostly cause I'll be selling the blue one in about a week. Nice to know though, I've never owned a 4wd before so my knowledge of fitting winches is non existent.

Pretty simple to do, only 4 bolts and some wires

This is the best place to ask for advice before you have a go. I have learnt so much over the time I have been on here.

Fitted the six LED Great White light bar off my now sold BT50 work ute to the roof rack, wired to high beam with wiring kit. Also fitted a small awning to the rear to complement the side one


Longer light bar on the Xrox bar I fitted two weeks ago, wired to the aux battery via a switch for offroad use after dark
Still need to sort cargo area and make a drop down table for the gas bbq. Considering removing the passengers side rear seat to make a base for a 12V fridge.

Some pics from Toolangi a few weeks ago.
