I went with the 24" horizontal LED on the bull bar that came with my Paramount winch bumper. It works great.

If you ordered the front factory trail cam, choose an "outboard" location for the off road lights so that they do not block the view of the forward trail cam. I used existing bolts/holes to mount my Mopar lights.

That looks sharp. I also like how the outboard mount means zero potential interference with cooling.

What's the clearance between the back of the light and the grille?

2 3/8" grille to bracket plate and 2 1/2" grille to back of the lamp housing.

Also, the off road lights do not block any of the other lights.

Do you like those Baja lights? Which are they 6 or 9s? Combo or spot?

Thanks. I have started looking at some of those bull bars. Some seem to make it tight to access a winch but still usable
The Bull Bars do seem to be the easiest solution for mounting lights, particularly when they have a tab. The bull bar I bought made my trail cam useless. Still haven't figured out where on bumper or up on the hard top.

They look to be the Baja Designs LP6
Your right about that one rohdawg. The lights in this video are the LP6 Amber style followed with the Squadron Ambers in the bumper and on the A pillar.

Can anyone identify the lights on this setup?

Those would be the Baja Designs LP6 ambers paired with Squadron (Pro/Sport) ambers for the fog lights and the A-pillar lights. Ill go ahead and link these if you want to check them out on our site and if you have any further questions feel free to shoot us a call at (800) 422-5292.

sweet! They look awesome! Why does replacing the dogs with your lights entail on the steel bumper? Drilling/ wiring or easy swap?

also the only thing in hesitant about is I think I want lights than can switch from white/amber

I drilled holes for my BD LP6 lights and to get them right where I wanted them. Be sure to paint any bare metal, should you decide to drill. I used Rustoleum Rust Reformer. It acts like a primer and sticks to the bare metal very well.

Thats kinda exactly what I want to do. Have you had any issues with the LP6's and mounting them there? Would you still do it again or choose another mount solution? I have a pair of LP6s i wanted to mount as outboard as I could but low on the bumper. I am contemplating drilling...
