I really like the look of this fitment, would be interested to see how well it works with the matrix lights. Also wonder if it would cause any cooling issues in really warm weather?

I'd be a little worried on the fittment.
Drilling a 3.5mm hole in the web of the grill and using a self tapping screw doesn't inspire confidence both from a durability and theft standpoint (Picture 3, circled in green). I'd rather there was a spacer/load plate behind the grill and it was bolted through. Click image to enlarge |

Looks superb.
But I think I can almost hear the aerodynamic engineer who did the cooling fluid dynamics on the new defender crying into his morning coffee having spent 3 years of his life designing the perfect blend of aerodynamic capability and cooling air flow only for someone to do a kit to block it up with an ally oblong air dam That said.... I'd have one. |

Nit road legal in some states where uncovered led bars of any kind are illegal on road. Maybe ok in Europe, but US state laws are a very mixed bag.

Wow, given what appears to go there in so many different areas of auto legislation, that is surprising.
When you say uncovered, is there a covered version that would be legal; and what is meant by uncovered? |

I think it’s as simple as it requires a plastic cover over the light when on road.
Looking on the lazer site it looks like they have removal plug that allows the light to be configured in an “e mode” for approved European road use which is quite a nice touch. They also look to include switches in the fitting kit so it can be enabled and disabled but guessing that might not be enough to keep the US laws happy? |

I have a Lazer Linear 18 Elite on my D3 which I was going to swap to the new Defender, but the fitting kit for that looks a bit awkward and renders the light unit vulnerable.
Having read the instructions, this is at least bolted and riveted to the car! 2016 D4 HSE 1998 110 TUM HS FFR Hard Top XD WOLF 1982 Series 3 SWB Petrol |

How does the law work? If your car is registered in State ‘A’ where an addition like this is legal, can you drive in State ‘B’ just across the border, as you’re not registered there, or are you banned from entering and will be stopped by the Five-0 and either have your car impounded or be escorted to state lines? In Europe, it’s very ambiguous, because the UK has some very relaxed laws when compared to France, yet you remain entitled to drive in France, (or Spain, Germany, Italy or any other EU country where your car flouts local laws), with relative impunity. Just wondering if the US works like this as well? Monsieur Le Grenadier I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list..... 2011 Puma 110DC - Corris Grey |

You’re subject to the laws where you are driving. Doesn’t matter if it’s legal where you are registered; you can be stopped just for driving in a state where it’s illegal. There are very few states where led light bars are legal for on road use at any time. That doesn’t mean people don’t break the law all the time, but if you come over a hill and blind a cop with these, it’s going to cost you.
