wiggs, easy to find out, get DaveyX to look on the front facing of the lens, should have a serial number within the plastic or get him to measure the length and width and cross ref with the website of the supplier, or ring em once you know, they're very helpful.

Ill see what I can do tommorow regarding the type of LED (if I remember )
Glad you didnt see any Shoguns... we have got one "off the road" long term but its got around 150,00 miles on it....
I wish Lloyds would just take it back and let me have another Disco.

Was going to get some for mine but ended up putting mine in the top of the rear window on the inside to save cutting the bumper. Work well there.2020 BMW X1 18d XDrive X-Line Auto

They do a flush fit bracket which is how they are fitted on the HA vehicle I have seen close up, hence they don't stick out at all.
Or do it my way

Mine has privacy too, does reduce output a bit but not enough to cause me a problem, means you can't see the strobes (when off) from outside at all too which I like.
Don't get me wrong, If I needed these to protect me when working on a motorway hard shoulder etc then I would fit them externally but mine are only used at the 4x4 site so not a life or death matter 2020 BMW X1 18d XDrive X-Line Auto

If you dont want to drill holes, I would use one of these for the front:
looking at the LED in the rear boot opener, looks like these are the kiddies with a bracket mounted inside the rear boot panel itself (as you can see two stainless steel screws on either side in the main HA D3)

Dave,
Can you tell me where they get the metal storage cage from?
Do they look like they are easy to put in and take out again?
I'm looking to build or buy one for when servicing a rally car.
Cheers,
John

not sure, mine had it taken out already, looking at your photo Dave I think they've intergrated the full height dog guard as part of it rather than have the OEM LR one
