I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.

8) I made a bracket that comes from the spare wheel carrier and bent it over to put my work/reversing lamp and my cb ariel.  Doesn't look that bad either.   8)

MZ666 mounted his on the roof inside the car pointing out through the window so if you are working at the back you can see and if you have the door open working in the load space you can angle in down onto the boot floor.
