Thread: ARB Bar for MY14 out soon

My mate has ordered the opposite lock bar modified for 2014. He is rural living and has serious roo issues. He has become really nervous about the new car and really doesn't want to wait even until January.

I remember talking to him one morning west of Norseman about a bar for me and we agreed I should leave it but get one sometime. Twelve hours later outside Cocklebiddy I hit a roo. That may have influenced his thinking.

Tells me the "official" date is january,but still believes they will be ready before,lots of enquires coming in across all stores.
I said so it isnt going to happen in the next 3 to 4 weeks like you told me last week.NO.Will keep in touch.

Thought it was just me getting conflicting stories from shop staff

ARB told me in June that the my14 bar was weeks away, they even booked me in for an install in July, clearly that was wishful on both our parts

I dont think the guys in the shop have any idea on availability, so shouldn't tell us until they have warehouse stock. Just my thought ..

I spoke to OL in Bunbury this morning. They have a MY14 TDV6 in their workshop for bar fitting this week. They have fitting instructions for fitting to a MY14, apparently there are no modifications required to mounting points, only some additional trim required below the headlights due to the different grill on the MY14 model. They will know definitively in a week when they have fitted it.

Hi Chris
See how they go with the fog lights and headlight washers.I was told they dont fit on the bars.Perhaps they are using their own generic products instead.
See if you can get pics,I dont like being messed around.If the OL bar fits and looks the part I will come over to Bunbury for one too

James.
Can you find out which store is doing the job and post pics here if you can.
ALMOST rear ended a falcoon yesterday in that fog on Albany Hwy,need a bar if Im going to start doing that sort of ****!!!!

He had some genuine MY13 washers to go into the bar. Can't remember what the go was with the fog lights. Will check when in there next.
Cheers,

Hi Andrew, I'll try to find out what store he spoke to. No pics yet as the car is still on the boat and not arriving until next month. It's clear he does not want to hang around and will get it down pronto after collecting it. Maybe even immediately.

I have sent an email to OL Bunbury asking them for pics of this instal and a price.
