I still reckon that setup looks dodgy as.In a previous post I said that the plastic cover of the roof connectors is cheap and fragile. What I meant is mainly this ... see the circled parts:
[EDITED]: don't ask questions on the female Deutsch housing plug (with male connectors by the way), this was mine to keep the cap open!

Do the boxes just "snap" in under/around the metal bar?In a previous post I said that the plastic cover of the roof connectors is cheap and fragile. What I meant is mainly this ... see the circled parts:

200 mmAnyone can help with the diameter of the driving lights?
Thank you! I actually meant the smaller lights in the middle if you can help too I would appreciate it!200 mm
Unfortunately no. I'm not back with my grenadier until Saturday evening. If no one else has responded by then, I'll take care of it.Thank you! I actually meant the smaller lights in the middle if you can help too I would appreciate it!
Any real world, night driving review of the stock Grenadier auxiliary slights?
By driving lights, do you mean high/low beam or the aux driving lights?STEDI Australia has confirmed they do not have any lights that would be a compatibale upgrade to replace the driving lights, but “I will pass this information [my request] onto the Development Team for consideration.”
Aux driving lights. Apparantly the ADR restricts how many lumens a manufacturer can emit from these lights.By driving lights, do you mean high/low beam or the aux driving lights?
The high-low beams being led already, I would have thought after market improvements would be limited.
Can any owners confirm if the aux driving lights are comprable to spot lights or just a bit of an improvement on high beam?
two different terminologies for the same thingLumen or Candela?
AWo
Not exactly the same. And if they talk about Lumen, which of the four Lumen typs of a single light is meant? Candela is the same, because it is defined outside the light. Depending of the lens or reflector, you can not see Lumen and candela as the same, as Candela, as you also wrote, is directed. If you have a lot of Lumen concentrated to a certain point, the Candela value in other directionscan be lower.two different terminologies for the same thing
Lumens refers to the total amount of light a lighting apparatus emits. The higher the lumens value of a lighting device, the greater the area it illuminates. On the other hand, candela refers to the amount of light emitted by a lighting device in a particular direction.
The lumens unit does not consider the spread or divergence of the light being emitted by the device. But the candela value of a lighting device is concerned primarily with a focused beam of light. For instance, a standard fluorescent light device that emits a wide-spread beam can have a rating of 1,700 lumens and 135 candelas. But if the light emitted from this apparatus narrows and must shine within a 20-degree beam, then its candela value will increase to 18,000.
Candela is another word for candlepower. Candlepower measurement is from times when the candle was the primary source of illumination. The word candlepower was substituted with the term candela in 1948. One candela is approximately equal to the light that a candle with specific dimensions, produces. In this context it is worth mentioning that the term Maximum Beam Candlepower (MBCP) is often used to refer to the maximum intensity of the focused beam of light emitted usually from the center of the lighting device, which is usually the source, and projected in a single direction.
