Default Driving lights on LOD Bumper

Is there a location to mount a set of driving lights to the top of the LOD bumper in addition to the factory fog lights. I have these lights on my bumper now and want to use them with whatever bumper I decide to go with. I don't mind drilling my own holes.

Not so much if you get the winch bumper. I built a light mount on to my roller fairlead.

Do you have any closer pictures of how you did this?

I cut a piece of 1.5" angle iron about 6" longer than the top of the roller fairlead. I cut an area out of the angle iron leaving a flat portion to mount on top of the fairlead with about 3" hanging over in each side. I drilled the angle iron and bolted it on top of the fairlead with the tabs hanging down towards the front. I then drilled the ends of the angle iron and mounted the lights. The tab hanging down is used to hide and protect the lights mounting bolts.
I didn't take pics before installing it. I hope my description helps.









Or you could spend $23.00 and buy this one from Poision Spyder Customs.



It is a little fancier, but It would not work with my license plate mount.

Thanks, I think that might solve the problem.
