Fitting instructions soft front A bar
Evening all

I've searched high and low but can I track down fitting instructions for fitting the soft front A bar I'm picking up from Zahy this Friday ?

Hopefully he's going to track me down a genuine guide but in advance or in case he has no joy can any of you clever lot point me in the right direction ?

I'm aiming to get it fitted Friday afternoon Rolling with laughter

Thanks all Thumbs Up

It's not too difficult, if you have all the brackets then its pretty self explanatory, if its the newer type which I think it is then you fix the bottom brackets to the a bar, they then bolt under the bolts that hold the bumper on and the towing points, fix the top brackets to the a bar and they sit over the top of the grill surround and under the bonnet, you will need to drill these to the grill surround, done Thumbs Up
I've seen some instructions that I think lro did a while back, I'll see if I can find it

Here's the link, it's for the older type but pretty much the same, the bottom brackets bolts through the a bar but yours will bolt to the back and you obviously haven't got the light guards either

Hi I have just fitted an A bar to my 110
It really is not too bad about 30 mins and all done
You only have to loosen bolts on the bumper as fixings slide into place and only 4 holes to drill on top brackets.
I looked up some old threads found one by mao9999 who had scanned in the original fitting instructions from his A bar.
It really is a simple job just take your time . Thumbs Up
