No probs................And there are NO issues removing front lights or even the grill when a A Bar is fitted. Its all designed to be removed to come out whilst the bar is fitted

I aint posting Links , thats just a tag in my signature to help me/you/everybody NAIL the correct ebay listings as ok'd by the Mods
I had it on my Defender and it looked great on it. I did not put one on my D3 because I think that the design of the front is so perfect, I did not want to spoil it.The older I get, the better I was.

DD,
Luckily, having a building company all the cordless gear was to hand. Once you have used a hole-saw, there ain't no way your using it again near the hole you have made, without it "dancing" across the bumper.
Jigsaw out and a steady hand....Like you, the holes behind the nudge bar are quite large, I was considering expandy foam and a tad of black gloss...
