Also does this look right, the Runva rope protector plate (I'm sure there's a special name for it) looks like it's sitting a little low, maybe not compatible with the ARB Bar?

It looks like you need an offset fairlead like this

Ha ha ha yes, "fairlead" that's the technical word I was looking for.

Where do I source this ❓

Thanks Grentarc

The grill on BB on the RHS of number plate opens up. It pulls open with a plastic latch.
Will that help reach winch lever?

Babs,

My number plate has been mounted on a flippable plate in front of the winch cable...I didnt ask for this...its how it came. Access to the clutch lever is via the little plastic door on the RHS.

In the last photo you can see the rubber strip that I've fixed to the underside of the light to fill in the gap.

Cheers,
Bill

I agree Babs, your number plate seems to be high.
Mine is fitted like D4206, lower and with a hinge, and I don't have a winch.

Babs,
They should have fitted their Hawse Fairlead spacer kit. It repositions the Runva fairlead. I'll post a pic later.

This is what they did to mine. Same winch, different bar though.

There you go, I had no idea that secret door was on the grille to access the winch. Thanks guys

Couple of questions

Does the number plate flip hinge come with the bar ❓

And is the Runva supposed to come with an offset fairlead ❓
