Spot Lights-Universal fit?
I'm looking at selling on the bull bars which came on my 90 when I bought it as I don't really need them and I'm not too keen on the look. I will probably be replacing them with some sort of A bar I think.

Simple question but I have searched the forum/web and can't seem to find an answer. Are most spot lamps a universal fitment? Or should I just sell the ones and buy new lights designed with the a bar in mind?

Any help much appreciated!

Most are, yes. usually an M12 or so stud with several large washers/rubber bits and a nut.

And most spots you can rotate the lense around in the body, so you can mount them "upside down"... as in, on an A bar they'd hang down from the top, and n a nudge bar they usually sit on a shelf.

Only thing to check is the diameter of your lights... (assuming they're round) that they will fit into the A bar.

Also check how deep they are.
Depending on how close the A-bar is to the grill, some lights are so deep that you have to remove a section of the grill behind each one. It isn't really a problem in use but it does mean that if you later decide to remove the lights and/or A-bar you have to fit a new grill. ONE LIFE, GET IT!
