hi, mr donkeychmp here you go
i just cut the plastic out with my dremel and the plate is just 3mm aluminium plate with 9 holes drilled equally spaced for the small round switches, i think 22mm, and glued in with super sticky stuff. what ever it was is good cos I've tried pulling it out, and well i can't lol. second pic includes a bit of an explanation,
excuse the wires, work in progress

It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out

Hi,

decided to go non original with the indicators in the bumper, some thing cheap, and readily availible but looked sort of similar but smaller.

only thing is i need to know where they have to go,

does any one know have far in from the side , the measurement to the centre of a indicator on a sj bumper, been asking around but no reply yet, so stuck at the moment.

will post pics of the bumper once its finished.

Been doing a bit more today, but not sure which direction to go,

On the bumper I'm going to put some tube above the winch, more cosmetic than any thing else, but now a mate mentioned when he was looking at it, why not mount a led light bAr there instead, around a 24 inch'ish would go well.

Not sure what to do now.

Tube or light, that is the question ?
Cheers
