    I won't be using Hella 500's. I will be using either a 7" or 9" light.

    I think having it moved towards the front will help greatly for us that don't want to use the 500's.

    I like the design for sure...But would we HAVE to use that V center part? I'd just like to have a bar to attach the 500s to...Like, just a clean bar used for mounting

    Agreed...I have my Hella 700's close to my GrillCraft and it looks really good the way it sits just behind it. I have seen offroad lights further back and it takes away the stout look.

    I'm thinking a spacer could be used. If you were to offer a 1" spacer and longer bolt that would go on each of the 3 mounting points that would work to move it out further and should be pretty sturdy.

    Mine sit almost on the grill. I would like to see it with the 4 Hella lights mounted and with the finished grill attached.
