Bull bar

What bull bars can be made to fit a D3 please? The plastic original one looks to be just too much money for what it is and to be honest I would prefer a chrome one. Discovery 3 tdv6 HSE 2007

Since 2007 they have to be 'Type Approved'
I'm not sure you can get anything other than the soft A type bar these days.

This gives a flavour

Only the black soft plastic one then that seem to command big prices? Discovery 3 tdv6 HSE 2007

If you’re always off-road or in Poland, I guess, although it’s part of EU (so the same rules should apply there....) Whistle MP 4x4 sells a non-type approved bull bar, http://mp4x4.pl/lr-discovery-iii-05-09/445...barem.html.

The Disco will be always on the road I’m afraid. I bought it to take my dogs to the park and as a workhorse. Might give a little green leaning a go but basically it will live on the road. I need to fit a legal bar if I fit one. Discovery 3 tdv6 HSE 2007

The black a bar is about the only one which is type approved... costs too much to do it. EU killed that business overnight.

Three hundred quid on e bay currently. It’s a lot for a plastic moulding. Discovery 3 tdv6 HSE 2007

Is there a European law about the fitment of spots? Discovery 3 tdv6 HSE 2007

In Finland we use the reference value system, you can’t have more than a certain number all lights combined. See https://www.lazerlamps.com/be-street-legal for a short explanation. Probably each country has their own.
