I think the lights should go on the bumper once reinstalled. The lights are going to deflect on the hood and give no illumination below it, and the glare will get to you at night.

They look like towing mirrors. Do what I did. Go to a junk yard. Find a wrecked Bronco II. Get part of the roof rack. Ask counter guy how much. Wait till he quits laughing and tells you just to take it, more paper work than its worth. Cut it down. Mount it infront of your roof rack. Use it to mount your lights ( if you look at one, they work perfect ). Mount ROUND lights if you can, but if you really like the square ones then who is to say its wrong.
