    Update: Feb /2022.

    Lights are all still operational and no issues with moisture seeping into housing. I keep the pressure washer away from there during washing but for regular exposure and mucky winters, hasn't caused any issues yet.

    I got some a pair of VLED's 3 inch red light bars that I mounted under the tailgate because my softopper blocks my cab brake light and wanted a little more visibility. Been solid with gravel and dirt falling on them between the bed and tailgate and winter salt. Solid product so far.

    Had mine almost 3 years and they still work perfect.

    That pic is just as old with my old Limited edition switchback turns

    I think you're right there. I was thinking about just replacing one of the bolts and putting a riser on it so it won't loose the visibility and keep a clean look. hmmmmm...

    ah yeah, that might not be a bad idea either. Might as well use a hole that already there, at least to start and see how it looks

    You could get away with the stock housing probably and use some sort of washer to fasten in place. Screenshot_20220224-132825_Chrome.jpg
    Since those flares look deeper than OEM you could mount on curved edge or flat edge of them.

    Edit . I would place them to the leading edge of your flare. Parallel with the last bolt hole and close to your bumper line. Sweeeet
