Lazer Lamp Linear 18 Lightbar

Installed a new Lazer Lamp Liner 18 to come on with full beams. Pretty simple install and very neat!

Love pic 3. The way the natural light reflects on the bumper, giving the illusion of a large cavity under the light bar. Took me a second or two to adjust and see the real picture.

I just hope the towbars will be gentle with you.

I hope so too!

I just didn't want to start hacking away at the bumper to fit it elsewhere.

are these lamps 'road legal', what with you wiring it up to main beam ?

my understanding is they are for 'private land' only, as they would dazzle on coming traffic.

or am I wrong ?

just reading up on this.

some countries make drivers place physical covers over the lamps to stop any light from being emitted during road use.

on early FL1's and FL2, Land Rover supplied plastic caps over Halogen bulb Auxiliary Driving Lamps, there was me thinking it was to protect the glass from stones.

I thought it was okay as long as was only on main beam and not on dipped (seems to be covered here) but I could be wrong! For Sale: 2012 Freelander 2 GS (https://www.freel2.com/forum/post431941.html)

Must admit I had always assumed the same, as long as main beam operation only it’s OK.....because the main beams will dazzle regardless if not dipped......there might be another issue with the LED bar not being CE/EU/DoT/TUV though......but I’d fit one Thumbs Up Regards

Thats a fantastic light, assume light output is good?
Seriously expensive bit of kit though, you'll want it well attached with some sort of security bolts to stop the thieving little barstewards nicking it.
Quite fancy a light bar but up on roof rails would be my mounting point of choice. Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

I’ve just noticed the anti theft brackets just consist of centre pinned torx bolts, I know they call them anti theft but just about every cheap tool set from Lidl/Aldi contains those type heads now.......keep your eyes peeled! Regards

A Bosch 10.8v angle grinder works if you don't have the right drive key, I have used mine to cut 60 x 3 galvanized pipe, 2 minutes first cut!

Remove or cover up the name so they look cheaper & make additional brackets & tap a thread & bolt & Nyloc nut & split pin them on to cover first layer of fastenings. The more fastening & the more variety the slower the rate at which they can be removed. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

I would be more worried about accidental damage, as they look very far forward.

Would they be better sunk in the grill? FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)

At the end of the day If someone wants to pinch something they will .

I could give you a good case for making it easy to take so it only costs the replacement ££ of the accessory rather than that plus £2000 for the damage they do ripping the front of the car to bits plus the 5 years increased insurance premiums after a claim to repair the car .

A very impressive light bar a lot nicer than two big spots on the front , if I ever buy my dream pickup truck I’d have one on the roll bar . 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

Sweden 

Is it the Yellow/Orange wiring(Main Beam wiring) that you have connected to a relay that feds your LED bar? Question
It looks like that on the picture, but it is not very clear.
