For the best light output you are best off using 6000K give you the brightest light witout turning blue. 50watt's really the one to go for! [email protected]

pictures of your brackets please....and how you fixed them on the car behind the grill....
Was planning to do the same....
I have an idea but the more input the better.....perhaps your idea is better
It looks similar to the way I have fitted my front lights but I don't have any pictures in my gallery.
I have bolted on a right-angled bracket, that is used for fencing, onto the metal part of the car behind the grill. Then bolted on a flat metal plate to the bracket which pokes through the grill. Lights are then bolted to that.
The metal brackets/plates are the one used for joining fencing supports etc, cost a couple of euro each and are available from any DIY store.The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

Hi
As long as you use an aluminium bar about 2 inches in width and at least 10mm thick you will have no wobble issues.I also put a rubber backing onto the ali bar so it wouldnt mark the paint.
If you use screw bolts and drill into the front crash bar the light brackets will be solid
cheers
