    Hi All,
    I wondered if anyone has constructed a bracket or mount for driving lights. I have a pair of Angeleye driving lights that I want to mount under the bumper, at a distance that straddles either side of the front lic. plate. Obviously I don't want to drill holes in the bumper or any other major part of the car's cosmetics. Thoughts on this or pics of something someone has done? (The lights are about 4" in diam.)
    Another thought here, how do would they do/work if mounted behind the grille? Anyone done that or seen it?
    Thanks in advance!

    Be careful putting them behind the grill. If you put them too close to the plastic it more than likely will heat damage it, if not melt it completely.

    I had a set mounted like that in an old work van I had and it warped the plastic grill badly where the lights were too close to it.
