Now, where to mount these. This pic was taken where I had opened the hood and looked right down behind the front bumper. You will see there is a beam that runs from side-to-side behind the bumper. In this beam, you will see 4 sets of holes. In the pic I already have two bolts sticking out of the holes furthest to the left.

First I picked the holes I was going to use and used my Dremmel tool to ream them out a little, to accept a larger bolt. In order to get the bolts inside this beam and sticking out, I ran a piece of wire through the hole and out the end of the beam. Here I took one of the bolts, with a washer on it and wrapped the wire around the threaded end. I wrapped the wire in the grooves of the threads then put a little strip of tape around that with some hanging off the end to make a cone shape, so ti wouldn't cathc anything. (MAKE SURE YOU PUT THE WASHER ON BEFORE YOU PULL IT THROUGH!!!!) When you start pulling it through you will feel it hang up some, but if you jiggle it around it will work it's way over the bumps. Just do this for each of the two hole on each side. Once I pulled them throught, I put on a washer then a nut on the outside, which you see in the pic.

I mainly did this so they wouldn't back into the beam and also because I want to be able to put on and take off the lights, depending on our road trips.
