Default Lights In Bumper Hole

I have some Hella HID "KC Style" lights that I plan to mount in the bumper hole where the front license place covers. I have removed the plate bracket and installed a billet grill. I want to mount the lights behind the billet grill, has anybody done this? If so, can you post pics?

Well since nobody gave me any details on how to mount them I came up with a very secure and easy way to mount them. I mounted them and didn't like that they were so closed together so I moved them apart and personally think it looks much better.

They are Hella FF200 HIDs. I removed the factory 4300-5000k ish bulb and replaced with 3000k to match my fogs. I also got a smoked vinyl and applied that to the lense to protect them and to "hide" them behind the grill when off. The last pictures shows how I had them mounted inward at first.

According to a quick search AutoAnything has them for $680 and i paid $20 for the bulbs off Amazon. IIRC my friend paid 1000-1200 for these about 8 years ago.

Before anybody says thats retarded you should have gotten a light bar. I would totally agree with you but these lights were getting to me so all it cost me was $20 for bulbs, $30 for harness and $10 for the angle iron used to mount them.

One day the plans are to mount a amber light bar but until then ill rock these!!
