Can you mount warn spotlights upside down? (eg to a LR a bar) Mike

2008 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 XS CSW Tonga Green

yes you can !

I looked into this in great detail a couple of months ago as I wanted to fit these to mine, you may need to carry out some minor structual alterations to the front grille as they are fairly deep in profile !
The upshot of it was that I deemed the lightforce 170 striker over the Warn ones ? "each to their own" as they say. DEFENDER XS CSW 08 TONGA GREEN

Thanks for that - thats great news.

Yes your right on the lights - i just happen to love them, always liked them and wanted them, so thats the one for me. I was going to get them this month but something has come up so ill have to wait a little longer - but Warn for me (next stop wiring through the bulkhead) Mike

i liked the look of these lamps and also the brand name !

the only time i ever saw a pair on a vehicle was in a dealers and when i got up close to them to have a look the lense was cracked with whacking great bullseye right on the edge !

that made my mind up for me if i am honest and i opted for the Aussie lightforce striker 170s !

job done really.................... DEFENDER XS CSW 08 TONGA GREEN

I had Warn's on my previous TD5. To be honest I was not impressed with the light emitted from them.

out of interest ? which ones are you opting for ?

from memory 5.25" or 7" seem to be the normal size. i do remember that the 7's did not fit with winch so if you have one or are intending getting one then take this into consideration.

if you have already done the deed then please post pics ! DEFENDER XS CSW 08 TONGA GREEN
