I got some off road lights that I really want to put behind my grill on each side of the ford emblem but I have no idea how! Or if there is a mount I can buy ! Anyone who's done this please help I'd appreciate it
I just drilled right into the header panel. I used LED's, and they don't weigh much. I actually made some supports for it at work, but after I realized they are actually pretty stable - I decided to hold off. I get a lot of people thinking I'm a cop when they see them behind there.
I had to make a 5/8 spacer to put them where I wanted them.
I mounted mine into the fiberglass right underneath and behind the grill surround. Drilled my holes, ran long bolts through. Simple but it's a PITA if you don't have a right angle drill. Lining up the holes equally on each side is kinda hard but as long as you're within a half inch it shouldn't be noticeable. Wear gloves bc the fiberglass you drill through is no fun. Run a fuse and relay if you wanna be safe. I'll post up the diagram I used
One thing to keep in mind. You want the fuse as close to the power source as you possibly can. In the event of a short that will save the rest of your wiring harness and probably your truck
Thanks ! I got some round KC lights and I already have them all wired up, I've been looking online and I heard there's a bar that adjusts almost like the pole that you would hang a shower curtain off of with springs and screws but I'll probably just end up taking the bumper off and drilling some holes since I can't find it
Mounting lights behind grill?
