I have one on my 2011 in the lower grille opening. It is a 21.25" that I bought at Tractor Supply for $140. You cannot go any bigger than this. I had to trim the plastic bumper pieces to go around the mount.

Rough Country makes the mounts to replace your stock tow hooks for like $70. You can get them on Ebay or directly from Rough Country. Then I bought some black d-rings from Harbor Freight to put on them. I have some Smittybuilt Delta series D-rings that will be here tomorrow.

I have a 20” eyourlife amazon bar in the bumper and a set of Auxbeam flood cubes on the cowl. 20” bar fit with no cutting required.

I had to trim into the plastic like other people and I also rushed this quick to get it on there so it's not 100% straight left and right but I love having it for those backroads that aren't lit up. It's extremely bright. Still have the switch hanging inside my truck out of the way because I'm unsure of where to mount it that wouldn't result in drilling into anything. Thinking of drilling a tiny hole near the dimmer panel switch for a button so that if I decide to get rid of it, I can just buy a new plastic piece.

Got mine on Amazon as well. No cutting or drilling, as I wired mine to a relay driven off the high beam on the right headlight.

It lights up dark roads very well.
