Rigid LED Lights SRQ2 Diffused Flush mount bumper--WHERE TO MOUNT

I didn't want to cut into my bumper either but also wanted something different then what I see around Dallas. The flush mounts don't look too bad in my bumper and the light distribution is perfect...for me...
What are they? How are they with the backup camera ? Any washout?
Here is a before and after picture of the camera view with additional reverse lights. It doesn't washout the image at all in my opinion. It makes it where you can see much more clearly and see a much wider view of surrounding potential hazards.

And the only reason I'm able to afford the Rigid's is because I got rid of my "Graco" car seat about 12 years ago (my baby girl is 17).
Seriously, glad to see you have your priorities straight.....
BTW- I noticed you had the "Limited" Graco version car seat so you aint doing too bad. Back then all I could afford for my daughter was a orange 5 gal Home Depot bucket and some ratchet straps for her car seat.... and it sure in the heck wasn't inside a new F150. LOL

I also don't park outside overnight so not too worried about theft.
I can see if you had a 50" Rigid curved light bar roof mounted you may would want the security bolts. Those things are very expensive and easily accessible so it would certainly slow down a would be thief.
I carry full coverage insurance with a $50.00 deductible, if someone wants to crawl under my truck and steal some lights then let them. I'll just file a claim and update my lights to a more current version. haha
