Nudge bar and LED light bar fitted!

Post by Samurai »

So after a many weeks since I was given a nudge bar by Umpalumpa, I finally fitted it!! :dance1:

I added a 60W LED light bar to it as well, and I must say, it looks great!! :thumbup: :yahoo:

I initially struggled with the wiring of the relay (negative current), but after some looking around on the forum ( viewtopic.php?f=3&t=34567&hilit=relay+with+a+switch ), I found where I was going wrong. Thankfully I am not the only one that has made this mistake!! :tongue:

Thanks very much for the compliments!!

At the moment, the LED bar switches on with the high beam. I would like to put a switch in. I saw on the forum once someone had a switch much like the original switches that fit in the spaces provided next to the diff lock or between the Aux 12v socket and cigarette lighter, but I can't find the topic. Does anyone know where I can get such a switch (in SA!)?

The bar was just under R3k, (Ironman 60W).

I looked at installing it under the bar, but with the mounting brackets I have, it would not have looked as good as it does. Yours looks good below the bar!!

Samurai, Halfway fourways has a fitment centre and they sell switches similar (IMHO better than these) for about R150 or so.

Thanks Stu, mine could only be fitted below due to the Legend 40 trim on the bar (or so they told me). But I prefer below ;)

Mine also had the Legend 40 trim, but I took that off as one of the studs had fallen into the nudge bar, so the one side of it was loose. :slap:

Cool, no worries. Their number is 011 317 8888. Ask for the accessories fitment people. They have different emblems and they fit directly into the OEM holes in the dash
