You're right, fit it to a Land Rover windscreen and you'd just illuminate the windscreen wipers!

I'm a bit puzzled by the comments about external lighting being vulnerable to damage by stones or parking accidents - don't really see my light bar being at risk from those!

"By being the first auxiliary light that is mounted inside the car, Rayzer sets a whole new standard".
WRONG, raydot IIRC did one that stuck on the inside of the screen, often seen in rallying mini's.

I've seen lights mounted inside the screen on a Suzuki before now. They weren't sealed to the screen though, so I'd have thought they'd cause unwanted reflections?

Also, based on my experiences while aligning my new light bar I wuld say that reflections from the bonnet are likely to pose a problem in most cars - I still get them, and if I aimed the lights any higher I'd be a hazard to low flying aircraft!

Talking of the idiots and their lights, i just watched a copper get abused by a few drunken people for driving around the centre of town with his fog lights on!!!

There is no hope for the land!

I am convinced that they would be in breach of road traffic regulations :?
