    Sorry mate, lights on the roof of a vehicle are not legal. Can't be above the bonnet

    Not legal to be sold as a manufacturer fit accessory on an ADR complianced vehicle, but not illegal in all states to fit and use after sale... (At this stage)

    I had a conversation with an engineer @ the 4x4 show recently at Brisbane, where on all the stands there were dozens & dozens of 4x4's with high (roof rack) mounted LED bars.

    He assured me that now in all states, "offroad lights" can be mounted @ any height. The stipulation of an "offroad" light is it can only throw a beam so far, and it is not wired to the headlights / high beam section of the circuit.

    There is a size & width regulation, but he mentioned that the regulation didn't stop you mounting two units side by side!

    If anyone is interested I will have a burnt orange canyon available very soon for sale, just awaiting a proper delivery date. If you want any details on which vw dealership this will be located pm me.

    Off ROAD lights may be fitted on the roof but to be legal must have solid covers ( not transparent) when the vehicle is on a public road.
    The reg in the link says they must be on the FRONT of the vehicle. Doesnt mention on the roof.

    The ADR rule about above bonnet height is still there.

    There was a model of Jeep that had them in corners of racks on the roof and were described as "Other" lights similar to the way they describe "Wanker lights" instead of fogs

    FWIW, Canyon has been granted ADR certification without the roof bar and lights
