hellas on our bumper

[Liberty Titan]

How are you guys mounting your lights on your bumpers? Winters coming so I took my roof rack off so I could fit in the garage and don't want to lose my lights conpletely so I am going to mount 2 on my bumper. Just curious about the best way to go about it. I have a few different ideas but want to hear some other ideas first O

Just inboard of where the tow hooks mount there are two openings that you can access from under the bumper. If you drill thru the bumper and sheet metal at these points you can mount your lights to the bumper - I believe this is where they mount the stock lights on the '05s now (not the little fogs that go in the grille openings). Heres a pic of my install:

Even with just two Hellas it improves your night driving so much!

OK, here are some pictures of the light patterns with my hellas installed:

Sorry for the blurriness, I didn't have a tripod for the camera. As you can see the Hellas are significantly brighter than the stock high beams - I can light up street signs from 1/2 mile away. I think they are worth the $70 investment.
