Recently arrived and fitted this afternoon...



I ordered it with a spotlight guard, but haven't fitted them yet...





The chequer plate was an optional extra too...





Foot with rubber seat and stainless dome nuts and washers

Chuffed with that! :)

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationIt's this one from Poland -



Worked out cheaper than buying one from the UK (there's a few on eBay) and I - personally -preferred the design of it...

You can even get it with a rear winch for lifting your hunting results onto the roof rack to take them home!



I tend to stuff my sheep in the rear though! :woohoo: :whistle:

That looks tidy Dave.

I've considered turning mine into a daily driver, losing the cage and adding a rack instead.

I'd have to get Redacted to sort me out a quieter transfer box if I were to do so and put some smaller, quieter tyres on. Then I might be as well using the original transfer box, which I saved.

The decent rack makes the Jimny so more usable.
