Hey guys, I scored a pair of KC Daylighters from a guy and now I really wanna mount them. Any ideas on how to get these mounted? I don't see any street bars available for the 2nd gen and really don't like the look of the grill guard. Any ideas guys?

Hopefully someone will chime in for ya. Other than the bull bars and the roll bars like Werm have, I don't think I have ever see them installed on a 2nd gen. Not to say you couldn't fairly easily fab up some mounting tabs for them.

You have to get the one with the gutterless kit. That brings it up to 189.99

Damn... I missed that haha. I may break out the welder and grab some box tubing to fab something up to mount to the front. Idk yet though...

I'm making a mount for mine so I can mount my pair of 6" PIAA's behind the grill.

Depending on your mirror style you could just use a cb mouth. But jeeps don't mount lights to the mirror. Those lights mount to the windsheild hinge.
