I got the 2 drl kit , can't fault it , looks neat fitted , been good no problems with it

got just the kit and fitted myself , all easy really , big hole cutter needed , take your time ( slow drill needed )cutting/drilling the hole and best to use some cutting oil to help protect cutter

Hi,

The DRL's are great quality and look fantastic with the recess, We have the DIY Kits available in our store and all you need is a 79mm metal hole saw. If you don't fancy the install I have prebuilt recess DRL bumpers on the way in about 7-10 days time using these exact lights.

Price are as follows :

Single DRL DIY Pack (Contains 2 lights and fittings) - £99 + VAT
Double DRL DIY Pack (Contains 2 lights and fittings) - £198 + VAT

If you want the prebuilt version (about 7-10 days time)

Single DRL Bumper £199 + VAT
Double DRL Bumper £299 + VAT

Here is an example of 2 lights installed :

The lights look great, but are a Censored to fit - will easily take 3hours to fit! Confused

I Agree 666PXX … The fitting isn't easy at all and even more so for a double DRL because there isn't much space and the cuts have to be mm perfect.

Thats why we are getting the pre built bumpers with 2 and 4 lights pre installed.

well I didn't think it was much trouble fitting / cutting the holes , you got a template for marking etc , like I said cut holes slowly with cutting oil

got a cutter from swcrewfix

Are there any options to fit driving lamps rather than DRLs in the recess' ?

I currently have a pair of Cibie Oscars on an A-bar but am starting to think that it looks little dated and like the 'clean' lines of the UT machines (in particular) but still want additional high beam lighting.

I'd be interested in a bumper with DRL and driving lights to aid full beam!

Ideally would like to remove bumper, get it galvanised and then re-fit once UT had done all fitting etc first, would this be possible?

not a fan of the above, my led bar covers my extra lighting needs so these would be a drl only for me, and as my current bumper is starting to flake on the bottom i might as well try drilling it myself then having it powder coated if it doesn't work out ill just buy a bumper from urban.

Sure, I was replying to the Mean Green and Bristol 90XS queries/comments about driving lights in the bumper.
