    Believe the X needs a modified section of plastic compared to the SE version. Has been posts about it on FB groups. I think its a section of trim.

    As far as I know the genuine LR bar is the only option-There is the same bar available through new defender mods-but they have been sold out for some time.
    My ARB shop said they will be developing one for the new defenders, so Im going to hold out for a bit.

    Rhino 4x4 are Melbourne based, but worth a call. I have one on order with a delivery of about Sept.

    That thing from rhino is pretty much useless, Waiting for the ARB version with hopefully more "meat" on the bar is probably a better option l

    Yes,without the hoops,definitely a large reduction in vehicle protection,which is what a bar is for.

    But if thats all that is available,one has to compromise,it certainly seems better than the factory bar,and probably half the price.

    Better than anything we have now for new defender.

    Would protect coolers mounted on either side and provide winch & light mounts.
    Cheers

    This is a new 4WD on the roads and it may take a while before ARB or other reputable companies decide to put the R&D into making a decent bar for it So at the moment it is the case of grabbing whatever is available or being a bit patiant and waiting until something fit for purpose becomes available.

    My advice is to wait until something that is "Fit for purpose" becomes available Before spending your hard earned Quids

    My thoughts exactly, first thing I noticed was the intercooler location below the headlights on either side, and imaging how much damage a roo would do to it. Between my 3 130s, unfortunately we hit around 10-15 animals a week..Im going to be nervous driving this new defender out to our jobs until I can get a decent bar.
