Send the link to this thread to "info@outmotoring.com" and ask Aaron if the ones he sells will bolt at this position. His brackets attach to the front bumper plate through one of the several pre-drilled holes in that peice, so he'll know if the plate will accomodate this configuration.


Good uck!

I just mounted a set of Hella 500 driving lights on Outmotoring supplied brackets. The brackets give you the choice of two mounting heights. I chose the highest one. The other is about 2 inches lower.

I can't find them on the site either. I was there a couple of months ago & saw that he still had them. Call Aaron & thell him that you want the lower brackets that mount to the bumper beam. Like the ones Chuck has.

After the search, the closest one is the bar from Palo Uber.

I don't think thats it. That is the part number for the bonnet mounted lights...
http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop..._brackets.html

The brackets in the pictures above are not mounted on the bonnet. Makes me wonder if they are a "one off" job. Thats exactly whta I'm looking for though. I get to kep the plate and have lights mounted down low where I want them.

That is what I'm looking for as well. I've seen one using outmotoring bracket, it is not as low as the one in the picture.

Can mounting four large lights in front of the grill in this manner obstruct the air flow and cooling enough to present performance issues?
