yes and yes is the simple answer

there are some wiring you need to join with the main loom i think to get the lights working.

ive thought bout doing that too.

Kev has a 300 bumper on his stretched Disco.
No problems there.

No probs with the back bumper, better adjustment I think, still got to wire the lights in though.

Still thinking on the configuration, was wondering if to use the reds in the bumper as fog lights, with them being lower down.


My friend has them as sides as well as the normal ones on the side.

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40

Yes I do have a 300 series rear bumper fitted to my 200  :D

Went on no probs. You'll have to get 300 series end caps too as I don't think the 200 end caps will fit right  :?:

The wiring is easy, and there is a great idea of making the rear bumper tail lights into brake ones  :D

I had to put 10W bulbs in the bumper indicator units to keep the flasher relay happy  :wink:
