What you think guys?? My 95 s10 needs more light. I dont want to go the roof rack way. I dont like the look of a push bar. so what about 2 square lights mounted on TOP of the front bumper, in front of grill.
stupid idea??

wiring would be easy to and that part of the bumper is steel.

i think you would be fine.
take a pic your ride and send out a photo chop request...i am sure one of us would have the time to show you what it would look like before you actually do it.

You could get the little square fogs and put them in your grill like mine.

Thogart. I need some 100 watt suckers. the 3x5 are 55 watts and still are to big the grill. I actually thought about the grill when I saw the pic of your truck.

I just replaced the 55w bulbs with the 100w. But I have also thought about just mounting the lights on the bumper, I don't think it would look bad at all. How deep are the 3x5s?

Well their you go. PJ's signature shows his truck with round lights mounted on the front bumper. Obv my chevy has a different grill but almost the same shape headlights. I think the 6 inch round KC lites will look fine on my truck.

I appreciate the tip but I dont support asian knock offs. KC has been around a longtime and is American owned. I rather give them my money
