The mount can indeed go either way. The mounting holes are universal in that sense. I have that same option but like having it above the plate. Now to determine whether I want the loght bars above or below the bar. I'll try below just so the wiring can be fully concealed.

Wont the light block the plate if you mount it below

I've got that under consideration: the range of holes and their elongations suggest I can mount the plate lower than usual if that's the case.

Cool, that makes sense now best get that job done quick, no time to waste with my next shipment on it's way

You crack me up, guys.

NIce  , She looks lonely though.

So that just screws into the plastic or bolted to the chassis somehow? Could be handy as a foundation to rivet my plates to

Sandwiched between plate and plastic using just the original 2 screws. You can always add nut'n'bolt enhancement.

I've gone tamper proof screws and pop rivets.

Don't get gary started (please)

I have this setup on the old Excel, and would not bother again. I had to make flatbar brackets running through the grille onto the radiator support to stop light shake. Number plate mounts are not up to the task of holding lights steady.





Irvin Bullbars in WA make i30 nudge bars:

Probably find if 50mm to 80mm self tappers are used they'll be just long enough to screw the nudge bar into the crash beam which runs directly behind the number plate and it will be ridged enough to support without shaking.

All info noted, My LEDs are an extremely lightweight option but will watch for movement and beef up the arrangement if needed.
