Yep those lights are very nice (very pleased with the price & quality). I actually routed the wiring up the passenger side, and it fit perfectly under the 3 metal clips in the gap between the glass. I then notched out the upper A Pillar trim (small piece not the big long one) so the wires could pass thru it then I ran the wires to the lights and zip tied the wiring to the rack so you honestly don't even see it. Then I used an OEM Cruise Control Switch, (got a spare pig tail from a junk yard), swapped out the front of the switch with the OEM Aux Lighting Switch, tapped into the dash lighting illumination, and then connected my 3 wires from my wiring harness.
Now when I install the snorkel, I'm going to run another set of wires up that side and run them to the back of the rack where I'll install two small LED Cube lights.

Old Faithful got a great "free" upgrade! A friend knew of a guy with an 03 D2 which had F/R aftermarket steel bumpers on it. He was donating it to a local church. My friend mentioned if he would let us slap on some OEM bumpers and take the HD steel ones. He said sure! So over the weekend I removed Old Faithful's OEM rear bumper, and then drove over to swap em out.
I got the rear installed last night and I just need a few new upper trim plastic clips to secure them. The front bumper is a super low profile bumper so I'll probably slap it onto the XD once I reconfigure the limb riser mounts.
I had always wanted a steel HD rear bumper for Old Faithful, but when I saw they'd jumped to nearly 600.00 I said nah. I also missed a few aftermarket rear bumpers at LKQ by like minutes unfortunately.
