Strange.....since when did fog lights become an ADR Requirement? Dont have much call for fog lights in hervey bay, but the rear one comes in handy at night to get people to backoff when they're tailgating you.

My 'friendly local jeep dealer' told me they are not bringing them in at present as they do not meet ADR requirements... I think crash testing etc.

The only Mopar ones listed as being brought in are the silly subular ones. Incidentally I picked up the Australian Mopar accessory catalogue from my local dealer and it had the list of accessories available in Aus, the Jeep tent looks neat but I'd hate to think what the price is.

...Yes the tent appealed to me to. Our 10 x 10 dome is just about dead and the Jeep option looked interesting. I checked a few web sites.. given our dollar at the moment ..I'd source one direct from the U.S. ..should land for between $500 & $600. ... I'd be sourcing it from the U.S. ..I'd imagine..if they bring it in.. DC will want you to pay for the priviledge and there may be a wait. If they list it at around that price...then give it a go. Apparently it fits the KJ..and possibly the Grand as well as the JK. As for those tubular bars.. They just look so....so... 'tacky' ? ..and they're very light guage to boot. Those Mopar bars look great..and the rear bar..integrated with the tow hitch and tyre carrier would seem the way to go.

Apparently as the car comes with fog lights - if chrysler is going to make a replacement bar - it needs to have the lights - that just what i have been told from the top...
