Fitting was $300 (for either bar)
Fitting a winch as well was $100

The (pretty poor) fog lights came with the silver/black bar, and the wiring was included in the $300 fitting.

I was concerned that the overhang might be an issue, however I did the Deddick track in the Snowy River national park yesterday and going up and down the very steep St Joan Steppes (twice - it was so much fun) proved to be no problem - even with some extreme ramp angles on some of those inverts.

However, the EAS fault half way along the track and the car sinking to it's bumps stops was a real problem...!!!! Fortunately I turned the car off before it became a hard fault, and when I fired it up 20 mins later eveything was fine - it rose back up and carried us home. (phew) Just prior to the fault we had done about 20 minutes of crawling over steep broken rock on the track which had us bouncing around like a jumping castle - even at slower than walking pace, so I suppose that could have helped generate the fault.

In all though, a great day was had with the family. Just a pity about the last 10 klms of the track being a complete sea of broken rocks - took us over 2 hours to do 7 klms!!
