Has anyone on here fitted spot lights to a badge bar ? I’m not sure If this has been done before ? I’m thinking of fitting some, but not keen on using the brackets that require holes being drilled into the bodywork. If anyone has done this, a picture would be good so I can see how it looks. My 4/4 has no front bumper or overriders.

Thoughts  Quite a strain on the M6 fixings that hold the grill on, especially given extra leverage from indirect fitting of spot lamps to badge bar. Partially hiding the iconic grill and further, a reduction of air flow to rad.

The neatest installation I've seen was one which Phil Ledgerwood did, and was a concealed bracket behind the number plate box, with a pair of small spots attached to the top surface of the box. I was almost tempted.

Craig, I have seen somewhere - don't know if it was here or elsewhere, that an italian Morgan specialist does a badge bar specifically for mounting spot/fog lights. Be buggered if I can find it now though.
I think a set of 'period' looking spots would look great on the front of my 4/4 but share your reservations about drilling into the bodywork.

Try the Italian dealer, Borgi for a spot lamp solution.
