I think all of the TDI bonnets are the same could be wrong but Nissan are cheap skates

im thinking.
if I brought a t2 for a spares project. a break.
then the most popular bits will go and your stuck with the big bits no one wants.
not many peeps want a bonnet so it must be cheap and (thanks rick but) local.

nowt up with mine but I have an idea

im thinking of cutting a straight line in the front of the bonnet bending it up and fitting a led light rail in the bonnet.

it may sound a bit ryan I know

my thoughts are based on the glare factor of my cab lights.
how do I tone it down?
paint the bonnet matt black.fit my custom spotlight blinkers.
and while im at it.
anyone got a free bonnet?
if it works you can have mine in replacement

I don't want to knacker my hood. but I feel a bonnet build comin on

You could get a spare grill & mount a 24ft (think it would fit measure first) LED light bar into that

or you could mount light bar on top of the bonnet behind the bonnet scoop

24ft?
im thinking. 2 12" led strips disguised In a matt black bonnet that is none glare for my roof lights

I was thinking of mounting a couple of led spots in the grill some how.
don't know how yet but its too early to start thinking about it.
I was also gonna use the led lights on the custom roof bar that I got off you steve but not on my list of prioitys yet.
truck needs new front shocks and a service first.
