    Took a grinder with a cut off wheel and cut the squares out. Used stainless Alan head bolts and nuts. Took probably 2 hours to do. Had to make a template for the holes though.

    Just go on eBay and find a set I paid like 18$ for these. Pretty bright

    I think it’s a good idea. I have C3’s mounted below that give awesome lighting and I can angel it anyway I want, but they are exposed to hits and rocks.

    I don't have photos but installed the same basic type in my aftermarket rear bumper. Plenty bright, that's for sure.

    Caliraised led. A little more expensive than Amazon or eBay but you get what you pay for in the long run
