    Would the grille guard pictured below be able to hold off road lights?

    I don’t see why it wouldn’t hold lights. Just drill into it.

    I dont see why it wouldn’t hold one. But there are some bull bars that already have a light mounted. If it doesn’t have holes pre drilled and you dont want to drill holes they sell rings in varying sizes that clamp around the tube and have tabs that come off to mount a light. You can also see about finding a bracket to mount one behind the grill its self. Or just put one on the roof like me lol

    Not sure if you bought that but they are showing you a picture of a Westin grill guard (which I have) but I don't see those listed on the RockAuto site.
    $816 Westin Sportsman Grille Guard
    I got mine from Amazon.

    It's an awesome grill guard. I mounted a 32" light bar below the main horizontal panel on the grill (which is inline with the factory bumper). There are also two small holes with rubber covers on that panel that can be used for spots / floods, etc. That shelf is pretty lightweight metal so you may get some bounce if you mount larger lights on it.
