Your jeep looks great!! I have a question about your lights you mounted on your bumper. I'm assuming those were made to be mounted upright, how is the beam pattern with them mounted upside down?? I have the same bumper but haven't found a light to run yet because I want them mounted like that.

They can be mounted any way. they're not directional. The light output on them is great. I use them some days when the windshield bar is overkill.
