ive always like the massive light over the cage mount on rainforest challenge stuff. so i plan to use my load bar as the base and build from there
i plan to use 4 7inch ones ......... =; [-o< :-k

did a mock up this morning plan to fit the no. plate above them :police:
im gonna try and use the roof greenlane 4x4 crossed with d44 style

That roof rack must act like on hell of a wind breaker, it must be like driving with a shed strapped on there.
You may want to think about trying to make the wind run smoothly over it.
Just a thought. :shock:

Speaking from experience I'd get the lights as far back as you can, All my roof lights do at present is light the bonnet and dash up... turn them off and I can see where I'm going..
On my last motor, (disco TD5) I had them on the roof rack well behind the top of the screen, Output was good and no reflection from them.. IMHO if there not behind the top of the screen they will be of no benefit to you ;)

Ditto
mine hang over the screen ....
when the new rack goes on they will move back... :evil:

I have mine mounted above my light bar. With the brackets they are reasonably high up and I don't get too much of a problem with glare (although faded red paintwork that is more Pink than red may help with this!).
Keeping them adjusted right when tangling with foliage is the main issue. I did think about making supporting brackets to bolt between the light and the roof rack but I figured maybe this might result in broken spotlights when there is no give in them.

Painting the bonnet matt black might reduce glare slightly........
