Roof/Side Bars with LED marker lights (First Post)

Post by Brian FS »

Hi all new to Caddy2k, first post and a I did go down through the topics already posted, I havent seen anything to do with roof bars with marker and strobes built into them gives it a proper Agri spec. I seen it at full of the pipe when it was in Ireland.
The van is from Malcolm Logistics

The video is from King of the road who where at Full of the Pipe [youtube][/youtube] https://youtu.be/l_0N3Wamy3c

The Photo which I can only find one so far is from Beefy Flaps that do mud flaps for Agri and trucks

Looks to me as though the roof bars are made of stainless tube, just like the side bars.
I suspect the owner has had these made from dairy tube with the trailer marker lights added in.

Can't say I've ever seen another caddy with this on so makes me think even more that it's a custom job.

The guys who make tube for milking parlours etc. are usually kicking out the side bars as a sideline job, it'd be worth finding one and asking about having a set of roof bars made.

Installation, being custom made, will be a easy or a difficult as the guy making the bars likes.
Bolting down should be simple but I really wouldn't fancy drilling a hole in my roof to take the wires through.

You could use hollow mounting bolts to thread the wires down ;)
