roaming man - I fitted mine to the grill, as I beleive the LR brackets go into the bumper, which means you need to remove the spotlights to remove the grill, which you need to do to replace headlamp bulbs if they fail.
If you look in my gallery, you'll see pics of the lamps fitted to the bottom rail of the grill.

Here's mine. Frenched into the front grill. I used a small piece of stainless to mount them on. Just need to get the beams all pointing in the correct direction and narrow the beams a bit. Other than that all is well.
I have the switch inside mounted on the console by the interior light.

I still have the original grill in the garage. I got this 1 second hand. I think it's been painted with bumper paint. Silver underneath. At least this way I can return it to standard ish if I ever sell .
I managed to get original LR wiring loom so it looks factory finish. I know I did approach TFC for a loom but impatience got the better of me and a good deal came up for a complete set of lights and loom. I passed the lights on to help offset the cost of the complete kit. I also had a spur taken off the spotlight loom to run lights up to the roofrack if I fancied more lights. But I think 4 is enough at the moment.HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE
