I think you will find there a a number of subtle differences to the AFN bar sold here. Still looks good but not as good as this pick IMO

The standard colour is gloss black - I didn't realise that until too late and would have preferred the gunmetal gray colour in the AFN photo. The only other difference I can pick is a hole on the right hand side to access the winch clutch - you can see it on the Wolf 4x4 site in the photos above. It's a lot less obvious with a black bar.

A couple of questions....
1] are any of the these bars ok to install yourself? I fitted bars to my 60 Ser. and 80 ser. years ago without problems. No issues with air bags etc?
2] there are always a few second hand bars around for 150s. Are there any differences to the fittings of the pre facelift models compared to the new 2016 models?
3] ball park cost of fitting kits if said second hand bars come without them?

Hey 404pug, I got a price on a TJM T13 bar the other day. I was quoted $1800 + $450 for fitting, this is for a pre-facelift model with front parking sensors. Just did it for insurance purposes, I already have one fitted. If you PM me your email address I can send you a copy of the fitting instructions in PDF format if you like.

I spoke to both TJM and ARB today. In both cases the 2014 facelift bull bars ARE different to the earlier ones. They say the chassis is the same but the mounting is different and the bar is a bit lower to suit the change in the shape of the lights and fitting an earlier bar to a later car will present issues. Bugger! I had my eye on one off a 2012 car. Just be aware if you buy a well priced second hand bar.
