i've had $80 worth of lights break on me so im remounting them from the front bumper to somewhere alil more protected. i was thinking up against the windsheild under the pastic fake vents where the windsheild wipers go.


If i Cut a few holes there going down to mount some lights will there be any harm? whats under there?


my plans are to cut a hole there , by the windsheild wipes, then under the hood cut 2 holes , one on each side, in the back wall to wire everything up and tighten down the lights then make a new peice to fit in that but just screw it in this time so if anything is needed to be done i can do it without much hassle

Gee oh Dee

Not sure where you are trying to put them, but the cowl come off if you take off the wiper arms and unscrew the screws. Its pretty easy.

Why not just spend $50 and get some A-pillar light brackets? Really easy and look great.

Dont put them on the cowl me including 5 of my friends did it we all got rid of them within 2 weeks they block vision every branch hits them and the glare from the sun is unbearable

thanks for the info , my only problem with the Apilar idea is that ive already knocked off my passanger side mirror a few times lol i see the same happening to them

ya i would think it would block vision mounted on the cowl.

Put them back on the bumper and add a brow to protect them.
A brow also keeps the fat a--es from leaning on them and knocking them out of adjustment

Gee oh Dee

You gotta learn to drive man!!

(I don't have a pass side mirror, same reason! )

There's no way I could handle that. Those would last about 2 minutes on my Jeep.

the windshield is terrible. i have them there now and i never turn them on. when my jeep was black it was tollerable, but with anything lighter than black the visibility actually gets worse when you turn them on
