Indeed, I suspect so.

It's not a bull bar - it's an A bar (or light bar as they're typically for mounting additional lights). Bull bars wrap around the front of the van to protect the headlight etc. and are illegal. These A bars aren't - make sure you refer to them correctly when speaking to your insurer.

Their proper name is front protection bars.

The other terms are nicknames, not official nomenclature, and somewhat interchangeable....

So when you call you insurers refer to it by brand name and model name to be sure of getting it right.

These are legal, but I guess they don't have to conform to the same pedestrian safety rules as cars and light commercials.
