Default Auxiliary Off-Road Lights

Has anyone installed auxiliary off-roading lights? If yes, how did you guys mount them and wire them?

Thanks,

I think the strip of space in the grille between the Land Rover insignia and the front bumper is a good place to install some brackets. There's a guy on IG @noogoojee who installed low profile brackets and added some badass Baja Design lights on his LR4 that I believe we can emulate.

The Land Rover oval is actually a concealed radar for Adaptive Cruise Control and Emergency Brake Assist, so you should probably stay away from it as much as possible to avoid false alerts.

I ran a roof rack and LED light bar on the front (will send pics). What I did is follow the hood separations, into the A-pillar (under) through the channel at the top. Ran two black wires over to the roof rack, then covered with really thin small rubber strip, into the light bar- Since my Defender is black it all hid very well. It was harder to run the relay switch into the cab. I went to the other side of the hood and ran it on the inside of the snorkel into the door panel. Not perfect but looks pretty good
