ARB Night Hawk 28 inch behind-grille light bar - Suzuki Jimny

The Jimny is small, light and very good off road – but its factory high beams are exactly what you would expect from a car that size. The Night Hawk Behind-Grille kit solves that without changing the shape of the vehicle: a 28 inch light bar hides behind the lower grille, and the only thing visible from outside is the light. No bull bar, no brackets sticking up over the bumper.

Key features

• Hidden mounting behind the lower grille – a factory look with no bull bar and no protruding brackets
• Plug and play wiring loom combined with an OEM-style switch
• Powder coated and e-coated steel brackets – high corrosion resistance
• Brackets bolt directly to the body – isolated from road vibration, longer service life
• A complete kit: light bar, loom, brackets and hardware in one box
• Better lighting than the factory high beams, with no change to the vehicle's styling
• Fitting requires only slight trimming of the plastic lower grille

Fitment

The kit is designed specifically for the Suzuki Jimny JB74 and JC74. The brackets bolt directly to the body, and fitting requires only slight trimming of the plastic lower grille.

The 28 inch bar gives the kind of reach that works for off-road exploration and night driving on country roads.

Installation notes

The brackets bolt directly to the vehicle body, isolating the bar from road vibration and extending its life. The only change to the vehicle is slight trimming of the plastic lower grille. The loom is plug and play and works with the supplied OEM switch.

We can fit this in our own workshop – with behind-grille kits the accuracy of that trim matters, because it is the one thing that cannot be undone.
