Default Cornering lights

I was trying to find some lights to use as cornering lights on the truck but I can't seem to find a half decent spot to mount the lights. I have tinted windows and its hard to see when turning at night. I hooked up a small low-profile led light bar and installed it under the running boards but alot of light is blocked by the tires and running boards. Any ideas or suggestions?
Note: I don't need these to be street legal as I won't be using them when I'm in town which is pretty well lit.

I'm debating on doing those but they bend you over for the price. Rigid duallys are $150 on amazon and those brackets are $120 but you don't have many options there with brackets

Edit: I just found these(https://www.amazon.com/Topline-Autop...od+light+mount) theyre $45 and look to be the same as the ones you posted I might give them a shot. Only issue with them is you have to trim the plastic cowling but that might be with all of those brackets regardless of brand

Default Check these out

I had the same issue , window is too dark to see well in reverse .... 4 small LED lights in the bumper ..... The pic only shows a couple the other two are near the corners of the bumper and help a ton . They take up zero space , not as bright as the ones that get in the way hanging down from bumper like some guys use ... They also only cost like 8 or 9 bucks ... Drill a 1/4 or a little bigger hole and they are like a nut and bolt with a light in them ..super easy to install ....

The ones I linked don't need trimming. I shopped both, didn't like the trimming idea. You don't have to use Rigids if you want to save money on that part. I'm more concerned with the light temp than the name.

Still researching. On my list is something like this:
