Whilst at Brighton Sunday I bought some over riders as I've always wanted them and got a good deal. After as an after thought I bought a spot bar, the works style it looks like.
Once I got home home I realised the bar may not fit with the over riders. I wondered on othe people's thoughts before I start fitting things.
If my bar (which im stuck with)don't fit is there a bar with 4 lights that does fit with over riders? Links would help loads.
Thanks in advanced.  15583845822915566233657383659824.jpg   56.1K   1 downloads  15583845822915566233657383659824.jpg   56.1K   1 downloads

I can't think of any 'works' rally Mini which had both a 4-lamp horizontal lamp bar and over-riders. The reason for the 4-lamp bar is for serious rallying and the extra weight of the over-riders is best dispensed with.

Some of the works rally cars has 3 extra lamps and over-riders, but that was quite rare.

Hi

 

I had to remove my over riders to fit my x4 spot "works" lamp bar.

 

Pretty  sure  I have seen a photo of a car with both fitted.... but it looks a bit of overkill in the bling dept...

 

(and I do like a bit of bling ... hence my vagizzle !!!).

 

Much as I liked both additions, I opted to remove the overriders in favour of  x4 Lucas LR6 lamps I got off e bay fro a bargain price...

 

I still have overriders on the rear which I think look great

 

All the best

 

Matt

Cheers Matt, my lamps are quite small the Wipac. So I'm hoping to source another bar I can squeeze them on. But everywhere seems to sell the works type bar. I can't seem to find any other type when googling online shops/eBay etc.

I never use the works lamp bar. Always make my own to take up to 4 large lamps.
