CBI Offroad: Hood Light Mounts
Well, I bought them, and DAMN. Shoutout to CBI!
I've always liked the hood mounted lights, been using them for years. But 4Runners did't have any. Sure enough, the day I post on here about hood light mounts, CBI Offroad Fab came out with them. Lucky me! I quickly bought myself a pair, and installed them as soon as I could.
So far I'm very happy with this product. They are a little beefier than I imagined. I first saw them on their website and thought "I could bend a piece of metal from Home Depot and do the same thing, and save a good amount of money." But these things are serious and will last a very long time. They are perfect! Highly recommended.
These aren't the best pictures (lights aren't wired in, didn't show entire install process, etc.) but you get the point. Better pictures will surely come in the future!

Does the light on the passenger side interfere with the power antenna?

it may be the way the picture was shot but the alignment on the hood looks off. The hood looks high at the hinge side.
Is that from adding the light brackets?

Yes, i agree.. I don't think its the angle of the shot it, truly looks like the hood gap gets wider towards the cab....OP care to post any more pics?

Yeah that's just how mine is. My hood as always been like that. The bracket doesn't raise the hood at all because it goes on too of the hinge.
The brackets also don't interfere with the antenna.
I'll post some more pictures below.

I think that for anything bigger than those Rigid D2s the look is questionable.

I agree! I'm ordering a set of these and another set of DII's..hopefully I'll get more clearance and less air drag.

Yeah they're a little big but whatever. I don't have the money to switch it out at the moment so I'm leaving it for now. Smaller LEDs will replace those and the Hellas will go on the rack or bumper if I ever get to that.

Looks good dude! My only issue before I order my set is: preventing low life's from jacking my expensive dually II's :/
