Ok, been away for a bit due to not having broadband for 3 weeks and no mobie signal. Anyway ....

Those last photos are perfect. But they look like two different vehicles or are they just different configurations?

I don't have an a - bar, so was thinking of a through grille mount. So, dumb question number one; how do I know if I have air con in my TD5?

20 inch bar either grille mounted or bumper mounted. Then if that doesn't cut it, I'll save for a roof mounted version. Do the roof ones need a rail, or can they fix to the rails?

Two different vehicles.

Sticky-out grill (technical term) and an extra section under the dashboard with grills and controls on it. It'd be really obvious, so having to ask the question suggests you haven't got it. Darren

Hi with LEDs too:

As you can see they make a massive difference , especially with the width and low down, so you can see the edges of the road & round corners much better. Also the whiteness of the light makes white lines, cats eyes, writing on the road and signs etc 'pop' out a lot more

Are these new headlights or just bulbs? How much?
Cheers paul
