Thread: Fog light upgrade D3 - ARB bull bar

Well the reason is your bracket from ARB is designed to retrofit the LR fog lights onto the bar. Can the lights mount directly to the bar instead of to the LR adapter bracket? Painful, but other option is to return and order LR replacement lights that will fit the bracket.

ARB offer a few different mounting options for fog lights across their range. Many of them vehicle specific so you can take the original fog lights from your front bar and pop them into your bullbar. That might allow you to get a good light bracket that would fit your new lights.

Depending on where you are, some of the ARB folk are pretty helpful and might be willing to go through their list and see if there is an appropriate option. Their system has drawings and measurements for all their products. That should allow for making comparisons, as many of the parts won't be in stock.

I can foresee two problems with this approach straight up though. Firstly, ARB have a habit of charging huge money for simple bits of pressed metal. Secondly, some folks at some ARB stores aren't interested in spending the time with you, they will just say no straight up, because you aren't some brand-new Prado owner with too much money and not enough sense, coming in to buy their entire catalogue. Some are great, some are horrible. It's a bit of potluck....

Good luck and let us know what path you go down.

Thank you guys it was pretty much what i suspected. I guess i was hoping for a straight drop in... but being a land rover i guess we often take the path less trodden.

I will keep you posted.
