I cannot put them on the roof as the vehicle becomes too high to fit in my garage. I also cannot put them where the winch would interfere with the lights (see attached). So it appears that I am left with three options. First, attach a light bar to the top of the top tube of the brush guard. Second, place a couple of square lights above the hood and to the sides of the windshield using modified jeep mounts. Third, place a couple of rectangular lights below the headlights on the bumper. I am interested to hear what others have done and how it has worked out. These would truly be for offroad and for winter night driving in the country (hit two separate deer last winter on the drive out to my ice fishing shack...lucky I was driving my F350).

Europa mounted large round aux lights on the brush guard on many of their 463s. The lower bar also has 2 positions on the upright and can mount about 3 inches below the upper large bar. The small lower bar is already drilled and tapped with threaded holes for light mounting. On my old bar, I drilled intermediate hole in the uprights for a third position, but did not end up using it. Here is the pic of the mounted Europa lights and an upper mounted short bar.
