Front Bumper lights

hang on....
EDIT:
Homemade lite tabs....using 1/4"x1 1/2". I shortend them up to hug against the grille by about 1.5" compaired to my old tabs. KC Slimlite Titaniums(thanks 07ranger!!). I'm going to add two more lites in the middle here like next week.
Comparison between my old tabs and my new tabs. I believe I followed the diagram of what Jusnes and Underdog sells when i made the first set...except for the thickness of the first set of tabs.

i thought out of the box and mounted mine low jsut to give you other ideas....
just remember if you make your own to use thick steel and try and keep the lengths short, i have an 8 inch drop and my lights will "rock" some on rough roads

Yeah, I'll admit, it is a bit odd looking, but these lights work better further apart. They have a wicked beam pattern, but I had them on another car closer together and it was too much of a pencil beam. I have since replaced the lower lights with some square halogen fogs.
I do a lot of night driving up in mountains with nothing but switchback turns and no ambiant light.

Update:
Left: Look at my above posts for pics of the tabs......I added a cross bar and now I have 4 lamps.
Right: Evidently, 06+ don't have the normal bolts that hold thebumper on....so we couldn't install the lights in the normal spot. We used the upper tow hook bolt. Got a longer bolt...bolted it on, added a spacer nut, then the bracket, then another nut. What a pain! Turned out good looking...and an origonal location.
