The laws are quite specific regarding modifications to vehicles including fitting of additional lights and their use therre-of:
AUSTRALIAN ROAD RULES
219—Lights not to be used to dazzle other road users
A driver must not use, or allow to be used, any light fitted to or in the driver's vehicle
to dazzle, or in a way that is likely to dazzle, another road user.
Offence provision.
Note 1—
Driver's vehicle is defined in the dictionary, and road user is defined in rule 14.
Note 2—
Driver includes a person in control of a vehicle—see the definition of drive in the dictionary.
Also check RTA Vehicle Inspector's Bulletin item #5 relates to Protusions on the front of vehicles.

Hows it going Peter,
Bit of a pain , One of the Jeeps come with roof mounted lights , and the tomb raider model disco ( ? ) has them as well I think , if these can pass compliance to be sold you should have no worries.
They cant knock you back for options available from the dealer.
Hope you sort everything.
Glenn.
