Bull bar

[Bilbo Baboon]

I live in Perth Australia and really happy with my 2012 Yeti 1.2 TSi. It seems to have a lot of kit that is an extra in the UK, it even has factory fitted reverse beepers and the great 6 speed manual, a bit of a "strange" choice to most other people in Perth.

I am looking at fitting a bull bar as I travel "outback" and at night on occasions, I am looking at travelling to Adelaide so would need a full width bar rather than the "nudge bar" that I have already seen on the website. Anyone any ideas?

The only ones you'll find for the European market are the soft plastic "central" nudge ones, as steel "Frontal protection systems" (Bull bars) were made illegal here several years ago.

I'm not aware of any full size bull bars for the Yeti, only something like this. It may be a case of a custom job.

Having had a very close shave with a 6ft roo on the Kwinana freeway a couple of years ago, I can understand exactly why you want the full width jobby.

As the Yeti is quite new to Oz and there probably isn't anything off the shelf available, it might be worth offering your Yeti to one of the manufacturers down there so they can use it as a pattern.

You would, of course, expect a very good discount for your trouble.

Those are just cosmetic.

I think the OP is looking for one of these...

Full width to protect the headlights as well. Much needed.

A roo can cause a lot of damage and easily write a car off if hit at even quite low speeds!

Are these legal down under?

Yup, and for very good reason....
