Ok got my TJM bumper on Pics here http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=43136

1. Does anyone know what bracket I need to mount my license plate on the bumper, instructions said something about a hinged bracket but I didnt ahve anything in the kit.

2. I want to mount lights on the light bar, been looking around and lights can be very expensive, so im looking for recommendations. Looking for a decent quality light but kinda broke after buying a new lift and bumper so nothing to expensives.


Thanks for the input

As far as the lights I would go with Piaa. They run about $200.00 give or take on ebay. The 510 is approx a 4" light and packs a punch, the 520 is approx a 6" light and equally impressive. Both the 510 and 520 are now also offered in an ATP or all terrain pattern for the best of both worlds fog and driving. The 525 is also approx 6" and uses an H4 bulb to give you high and low beams. The 540 is approx 5" and ultra slim. And last is the 580 which is almost 7" and is more like an offroad light with the equivalent of 135w. There are many others this just touches base on the round ones. Hope this helps. :D

the bracket is an option if you want a winch , it flips up to give you access to the fairlead,

there will be two white plastic nutzerts that you push into the bumper that you bolt the plate to just above the coutout for the fairlead

lights


IPF are good but $$$$$$$

not sure how available are lightforce over there but the 170's are pretty good light for the $$$$$$

Thanks Fouros

but another question for ya, as I do plan on adding a winch hopefully soon, where can I get the flip up bracket, or should I just go to a trailer shop and try to find one that fits.

Guess what I am saying is if their is one that made specifically for the TJM 17, do you know where i can purchase it?
