There must be slight differences between cars. The black wires for the led daylight lights on mine needed to go to "white" on drivers side & "white/yellow" on passenger side on the daylight plugs.
Thanks for your list as it saved a lot of stuffing around.

Yeah cool. I used heat shrink to join the wires after solder and went through two water crossings since and they still work mint! Mine is a 2012 model. Love that car.

Has anyone installed a hidden winch mount behind the ecb. I have a 2012 overland with a ecb fitted and am contemplating a winch. If either the Chief or the Uneek hidden mounts will bolt up without interference from the ecb mounting Im hoping someone has already tried. Please post if you have.

Could you fit a ECB/Bullbar without Suspension upgrades? Or would the stock suspension no handle the extra weight? I would assume a bullbar would weigh just under 100kg.

[KJ_andy]

weighs 55kg, I've got mine on stock Overland Quadra lift. No issues

Do you need to cut the bumper to fit an ECB bull bar?

No cutting, just need to remove the lower bumper section. This was one of the reasons I replaced my ECB bar with a ARB bar as upon hitting a roo the bar pushed up into the top bumper and in turn the bumper pushed up and did more damage to lights and other panels

The ARB looks so much better. The Uneek bar looks good too, single loop. But their all over $2.2k.
