Default mopar bumper

hey all i have had the mopar winch bumper for a few months and am thinking about mounting some off road lights on it just looking for some pics to see what others have done. im not too big on the windshield or pillar mounted lights because in the winter months i go through the auto car wash weekly.
thanks for your help

you can always drill some holes and mount them through the bumper, but you may not want to drill? Others with this bumper may have better ideas. JOE>

Tough finding a spot where lights don't block something. This is where I chose to mount my KC Slimlines. I just drilled a couple holes in the bumper and bolted them on. Been about a year and they work great.

I welded a few tabs on the bar to mount some above the stock headlights. I also shaved the airbag cones off and fabbed up some d-ring shackle mounts.

I made a cardboard template and drilled two new holes more inboard than the factory ones.

Since I had already done the marker light to turn signal mod on my fender flares, I was more concerned with being able to see my turn signals straight on.

You can buy light mounts that just clamp to your tube grill guard. Just buy the ones which fit the diameter of the tube. No drilling or welding needed.
