i took my grille off the other day to paint it. for a 97-03 its really ovbious when you have the grille off to see how to make it works. the bar you need is right there. its a plastic cover over a metal bar. drill two holes and mount your lights.


BTW have any of you that did install these lights behind the grille have any issues with the heat from the lights damaging the plastic grille?

I plan on doing this when I get my truck. Love the look and it's easy and inexpensive to do.

My question is, what is the difference between fog lights and driving lights?

Fog lights cut through the fog and are usually yellow in color and have a short wide pattern as with driving lights are white in color and go for long range distance

I have sold the bracket, I wish I had time to build brackets for you guys. I am just swamped with stuff right now, working full time and school part time, spending time with family and all.

I've also added a set of driving lights to the nose of my SCrew, but mounted 'em a little differently. I fabbed up a couple of brackets to mount a set of KC lights in the opening in the front bumper. (Excuse the dirt...dang road salt )

Does anyone have them installed on a horizontal billet grill? I would love to install some, but not sure about the light output with this grill.

Had mine on my bumper but I'm getting that sanded and painted white in a few weeks so I'm thinking about fabricating a device to mount both my Hella 2020's behind my lower billet grille
