Not a bad looking set of products ,I like the Sand Flags with the LED in the top , I see they have drop down door tables for Troopies at $229, I think I could make my own for under $50 , but I'm a Gunnado , been thinking about this now for at least 3 years, I think maybe I give the idea away after I got the K&N Caddy and rear bumper, with a good flat top it makes a good table.

Hi pjd
I went to a push bike
shop and purchased a two piece flag pole with a flag that I put on my roof rake for a total of $12 did the job for me nearly 3.5 metres high from the ground.
You could also put a fishing rod on the bull bar

Had an old 11 ft fishing rod (two piece) that was
well past it's use by date. I shaped the handle so it fits neatly on the bull bar and cable tie it in place.
Guess you could say that one cost nothing (provided you have an old beach rod lying around).

You could also use a Wog Pole (Squid rod). Cost about $25 and is 6m in length. It is made of fibreglass and is telescopic.
Mine has survived 3 years of rough desert trekking but has to be taped up a tad now.
Cheers
