    I've had a pair of HELLA 500s laying around since this summer. I'd like to install them, but I can't think of a place to mount them and I don't have a SATOSHI/TYTOSHI grille. Anybody have some suggestions?

    Well, I saw one around town with them on the bumper, but idk. I don't have any other choices so, I might as well get rid of the lights.

    Mount them to front bumper directly in front of the grille. There is a dude running my town like this and he said they sit securely. I never looked at it up close though. It does look good!
