Although it would likely require drilling in the roof -- I think they'd look nicer up high above the windshield if you have a set of 4 or 5 sort of like the Paris to Dakkar off road Rovers.

But you could probably do it if you got the roof rails and they were hollow, you could run the wiring through there -- just a thought

If you want to fit a bullbar you would have to be very careful not to interfere with the airbags, restraint systems and the pedestrian safety system, the car isn't designed to have a bull bar on it. Have you thought about mounting Subaru Imprezza WRX style lights in the recesses for the OEM fog lights?

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

No, but that's a great idea

If you do then there is a thread in the Modifcations section about how to put in the wiring.

Sounds like a pretty good idea
