    this is my truck and I have ordered (2) LED POD SPots vi GP for sit just bumper level or that general area. What is the best option to mount them, noting where I have the Light bar mounted.
    I have had a heck of a time finding a mount when the crash area under the bumper is occupied.

    thanks for any links, idea's or vendor suggestions.
    Prefer a no Drill option if possible.

    Thank you in advance
    (this is my first Tacoma.. previously 2003 4-Runner sold with 220K perfect miles)

    this is how i have mine, it may not work with your light bar being where it's at though. i know there is someone on here who makes the ones for the hood mounts also.

    nice image .. I like the comp on the photo.. well done.
    sorry.. cell phone shot..since I have Plasti covered the emblems. Ready for the pod lights to site just in the same general area of yours.. trying not to drill as I am sure push.. I could have something fabricated, but hope that is not necessary..

    SOMEONE must have done this already.
    a mount for LED PODS that have them sitting above the bumper, but noting that the lower Grill area is plugged with a 30" light bar.
    there has to be options here to mount PODS.. someone must have done this already.. so please.. any help here would be great.
    I prefer no bull bar or such that would block or maybe contact the LED bar in place already.... HELP PLEASE!

    this is what I have right now.. so looking to mount them grill level
    will Behind the Grill work ok for SPOT LED PODS.. as if I can get them just above the bumper, below the Emblem.. I think that would work..

    THANK YOU all for input and suggestions.
