I'm trying to copy the bumper, A bar, light setup. Already got the bumper and the bar - just need to get the lights.

Its the same as a rebuild RAngy that was in one of the Landy mags not long ago.

Post by: Jake on October 12, 2008, 18:04:52: The Lightforce on the disco are 240 Blitz spot lights. I personally thought that 240 Blitz's are a bit big on a disco so i went for a pair of 170 Strikers ;)

I stuck a pair of HID H3 in my Wipac 8" lamps and they are bright enough.

Post by: karlo on October 16, 2008, 15:37:39: Karlo just thought they looked similar, karlo never looked at the price cos karlo ain't got no intentions of paying more than wipac 100W prices and he thinks that's expensive :lol:

Post by: Budgie on October 17, 2008, 17:46:26: It's made by Safety Devices (http://www.safetydevices.co.uk/) but I can't find it on their website so I don't know it they still produce it.

Edit:
I found one on Ebay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Land-Rover-Discovery-Safety-Devices-RoofRack-Roof-Rack_W0QQitemZ350110202109QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item350110202109&_trkparms=72%3A1299%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14) for you, but it ain't cheap!!

Post by: Disco_Stu on October 22, 2008, 22:53:01: It all depends what you use your truck for.

That beautiful, shiney disco looks like it has never been anywhere near a greenlane, nevermind anything a bit more taxing. I may be wrong, I'll concede that the size of ones wallet counts for much, but at the rate I'm breaking things, if costs more than Â£50 it had better be made of at least 6mm steel....

Post by: piper5 on October 23, 2008, 18:46:22: pick up a truck magazine and look at the spots in there they tend to be much cheaper, just change the bulbs for 12v
