Lightforce 140's on Expedition Rack

Finally got the lights (LF 140's) fitted yesterday.









Brackets are rock solid, and I think the lamps look a lot more discrete than the LR ones I had before. Also got Uncle Ray's wheel carrier fitted 8)

Many thnks to my mate Andy for his help Bow down and thanks to DFlo for turning up and watching Wink Disco 5 HSE Lux

Looks good!

Two questions...

1. Why are the lights not evenly spaced? Confused

2. Why does that Jeep look so sh*t and weedy next to your D3? Wink Laughing Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

1. They are evenly spaced. 2 one side - even space - 2 the other Wink

Just prefer the look of it.

I like that Stu.

I think mounting them in 2 pairs unevenly spaced, adds width to frontal view. It looks less top heavy. Very nice indeed.

How do they affect the wind noise?

No different, still noisy as fCensoredk Laughing Didn't have time to fit the rubber strip I've got.

My last rack (now BCB's) was really quiet. I thought it was the lights breaking up the air in front of the rack, but it was probably just the size of the holes in the front fairing. Disco 5 HSE Lux

What we need is someone with access to a wind tunnel.

Now are you going to fit a pair of LF 240's on the front ?

Too big for my taste, especially without the nudge bar. Would love the wattage though Laughing
