I brought this lamp bar a while back and i cant find out how the lampbar fits.

So can someone help please.

i have tried both ways round on the bumper lip and the only was it will fit is like this



And i cant see how this could be correct as the light would stick out a mile.


So i tried it the other way round and the hook part of it wont reach the nut or anywhere near the lip.



So i dont have a clue how it fits.

can someone shed some light on how it fits. :'( :'( :'(



Some more pics of the bar if it helps

As minivanman said pic 2, remove bumper if needed drill some new holes fit bar then re-fit bumper.

i already tryed removing the bumper and fitting it but if i put it there, there is no way to put hte bumper back on.

Have you tried fitting the bracket on top and under the bumper mouting flange ?
it doesn't fit with the brackets pointing down does it ( only a thought)?

[Sprocket]

It wont fit, you are missing the two brackets that fit on the ends of the bar and attatch to the front panel.

Have a look at the last picture i posted you can see them there. Your bar is slightly different in that the center bracket is welded to the bar rather than being seperate like mine.

Come to that, i dont think the center bracket is the right shape to go over and under the bumper but rather bolt straight to the top of the front panel. You still need the other two brackets though.

I have order the side brackes off ebay but i still dont under stand how the middle bit would fit
