Here are the better pics! Please excuse the mess, went mudding the other night





And yes the switch mounting looks loose. Its only held on by one screw in a already predrilled hole. I just wanted to try the spot out.

Sorry, pulled up an old link.

This coupon is good till the end of the year (12/31/10)- I printed out a stack of them and have them in the glovebox. :-)

a bracket is supplied, kinda. all it is, is a bolt. There is a hard urethane plastic "base" with a curved halfmoon on the top side, with another half moon piece to go on top of that. Thats to control the up and down aiming.

hope that is clear as mud for you to understand.

Anyone know if these work well as auxiliary fog lights?

They don't list much as far as specifications go. Not sure if they are 100-watt or 55-watt.

I was actually thinking something like that would work AMAZLINGLY. However you'd have to make a housing for it tho...

I guess I'm a little confused as to how you can operate them..

Can you place 2 of 100-watt ones (original ones posted) on your bumper and have them on in addition to your head lights while driving down the road?

I know you can only operate roof-mounted lights while off-road with your hi-beams.

how to operate....flip switch to on position haha....

Just messing with you man.

Your going to want to check your local laws about the driving on the road with head lights and the aux lights on as well. That will be your best thing to do

Im also thinking of adding a couple to the roof rack.

How do you guys rig the wiring from the roof without drilling holes?
