Yep, it is!
Thanks for that.
Did you install it yourself?
I assume they are the 9” spotties?

It was originally Babs bar from here.
It wrote off a corolla, or more accurately a corolla wrote itself off on it
Babs got a new one on the insurance claim and I bought his, it has a slight scuff in the paint and a small dent where it had a chat with the Corolla!
So I had a brand new fitting kit, and the bar. It was fitted by Bruce Davis cos it was too heavy for me to sort myself alone. I cut the guards as I like a tight fit and the ARB gaps are too wide.
Kings dominator spotties 9". V pleased with them. Wired to fog light and main beam. Needs both for spotties to come on. Considering making them double tap with main beam, IE 2 flashes for them to come on when fogs are on.
That’s reassuring to know!
You are obviously as fussy as me, no way would I let ARB cut those guards, I have seen so many where they have butchered and left a 2” gap that looks woeful!
Was it hard to get the cut right? Any learnings for me?
unsure how I plan on wiring them yet, bought the kings lights today. Assume a switch but does anyone just hard wire into the high beams? I have the bi-xenon
Legally - Switch required.
Besides; Being able to stage dipping is handy...
And don’t leave the gap too small - on corrugations or a small hit where the bar flexes slightly it will blow the wheel arch off!
Good tip. Thanks Tombie
where does everyone put their switch? I have no interest in adding any holes in the dash so is there any other solutions available?
Ipf mouse switch, comes with double sided tape. Mine is stuck just being the light stalk.
Mount the bar as high as the adjustment allows., push brackets high, then bar high.
This gets it as close to the headlights as possible. Still a widish gap
Then trim Guards using a thin metal cutting wheel on angry grinder, to your taste and dependent on the roads you travel as Tombie said.
My lights are double cut. Fogs activate second relay which latches on, main beam operates first relay this gives spotties as well.
I've bought another headlight switch to see if I can make it fit another switch internally.
Edit:
Inspired me to have a look inside.
There is a lot of space for a flush switch inside the headlight switch
