Aftermarket lighting

Hey just installed some aftermarket off road lights on my 01 taco. i decided to try something new and mount them behind a stock grill. i always see the fords and dodges with the big ass lights behind their billet grills and i wanted to be different. anyway.....after a whole day of fabricating brakets and different mounting positions they turned out pretty bitchen. pictures will soon fallow, and if i'm not lazy i might take some of the brackets i made too.:bounce2:

looks, like you did good job putting those in there, but they do not look functional, it looks like your only getting about 40% out of each lense, let us know how that works out.

from the first night of testing they work pretty kicken. i was worried about the wide part of the grill to but they dont seem to effect it much. however, the lights are 100w h3 bulbs so there isn't really much that will stop the light from shinning through. and i know the pics are a little small but actually the bulb rests a couple centimeters off of the bars so the main part of the light shows. i'm a bit of a noob at adding pics in my posts , so i will try to get some larger ones on another night.

alright here are some bigger pictures. possibly better pics and i added one of the brackets i made. but i left the grill on so it is kinda hard to see all the cutting and measurments i had to do.
