Default Fog Lamp brackets for the ARB Bull bar

Because finding a new marker lamp for the ARB Bull bar at a reasonable price is not so easy. I've always been interested in making a bracket and fitting a slim fog lamp in its place...

mounting this light into its place

i'm not really sure what the mounting tab here is actually for but as soon as i saw it.... I had some ideas cooking up!

figured i could make it into a simple 3 piece weld-up bracket. Beginning with the lights mounting plate

Then a base mounting plate for the "unknown use bracket" on the ARB Bull bar. Then also a piece to connect the two mounting plates.

So there you have it. Strong and sturdy.. I think a little overkill just to simply hold a light but atleast i won't have to worry about it breaking or bending.
