Tombutt just made some mounts for his.
What size light bar do you have? I reckon I could knock out a few decent mount kits for a 40-42" lightbar.

Wow looks awesome!! ^^^
Fatzook how much do you reckon it would cost for a 40-42" mount kit if you make one?

How much glare does the windscreen mounted lightbar throw across the top of a flat white bonnet?
On my Vitara the I found the roof mounted spotlights caused too much glare for comfortable driving when they were mounted close to the windscreen where they can illuminate the bonnet, thus they are mounted about 400mm further back than the windscreen so as not to reflect off the bonnet.

The 42" bar on my Navara is mounted in a similar position (bit higher) and when the car is clean glare is no problem, when its dirty I get glare off the dirt on the bonnet. It's a black car which I assume makes a difference, and I'd say the bonnet is a fair bit slopeyer (is thst a word) than a sierra
