The LOD mid width has holes for two spots and is a very good quality bit of kit.

There's a gazillion choices and options for them. Search forums and Google images forsome ideas.

I have a Warn and use my existing fog lights and will also mount some KC's to the top down the road. Bumper came with light mounts for such application.

Lots of bumpers with bull bars have two tabs on the back of the bar for mounting lights.

How did you mount your license plate? From what I've seen online there isn't a spot, especially if there's a winch.
