I agree with Scott. :eek6: For those lights to work best an on top of the bumper placement a la Justajim works best. Most folks don't seem to like the lights up there. FWIW those lights mounted the way Chuck wants them will look great. When I installed mine the only decent bracket available was one sold by Outmotoring. I ended up mounting mine lower than I'd like. Yep the lights don't work as well due to the lower light placement. They are still good, but not optimum.
I'm a bit worried you will be melting the pavement with those. Love the name Lucas had for their old driving lights (Flame Throwers). Their fogs were (Pathfinders).
If I can fit these in the spot that I want them they are going to be fantasticballs.... These babies are very well made....
Been following along waiting to see how it looks for real once installed as I'm thinking of the same thing once I get my new bumper cover painted. Currently my lights are behind the lower grille.. Now wanting to cut holes in the grille, and use bigger lights, yet still sit back in there as much as possible.. Question for those with the BIG lights how often do you actually use them. I see most people always have the covers on them anyway.. I'd plan to use mine some but kinda a "looks" thing mostly..
I will need to pull my bumper off in order to see how these are going to fit.... Now that my MINI is resting in the MINI cave, I'll be working on this project this coming weekend.... I'll take lots of pic's... Custom bracketry will be required no doubt... The lights came with "adjuster screws" for mounting, that will allow aiming of the lights....
To tell the truth I only use my junior laser beams with my high beams. Only on back roads in the dead of night. They are too bright to use if anyone with eyes is around. I'm very glad to have them & would do it again.
MM, I will believe it when I see it. I still remember something (you never said what it actually was) you made to go in the boot about two years ago, that hasn't been installed yet. :lol::lol:
