Anywhere you have 10 inches...

Seems like an ideal size for the bumper/stinger. But would also be a perfect size for side or rear illumination. May even work for under the hood or vehicle. It really depends on its dimensions and what you want!

What bumper are you running? You can usually either just drill two holes into a bumper, or fab up a bracket with some steel or aluminum plate from Home Depot or Lowes and just drill two holes to line up with mounting points on an existing bumper, and two hole that line up with the lights.

I would try to make a reverse light out of it because the spare kinda blocks my whole view and blends in with the dark. My view will be worse once I get my 35s on
