I recently bought wheels and tires and the guy gave me a pair of Hella Fog lamps the OEM from the Jeep TJ Rubicon. I'm probably going to have to fab something for them, but would like to hear opinions of what you guys think. I was thinking of just setting them on the bumper close together or apart, like in the images. Tell me what you think.

Second option-...further apart is my vote. Did you do something to your turn signals?

Cool, I'm also inclined towards apart, and it makes sense to have them like that.

Oh, about the signal lights, I just tinted them. I just used reg 20% tint and it kind a gave it a blueish tint on them so I kept them on. I was going to do the spray but since I had some tint left over just did that, once it fades I will take it off and spray them, but for now I guess it works.

Apart as well.

As far as mounting them, I came across this from the Detours website from the parts suppliers pare in the Tech section. Has anyone tried this or know that it would/might work?

A handful of people use a KC Lites hood lightbar for a JK and screw it down onto the bumper and in my opinion is the perfect width. The bar is only $35ish and only requires a little cut off of the brackets to mount nicely.

I thought about that (being below) but due to the tow hooks I was thinking it would probably be bad if a strap snaps or come in an angle, in that case it I would need to put them really close together.

Exactly.
And, can you lower them a bit? Does the bracket need to be that long?
