I guess I donot understand the question.

 

It looks metal?

 

I was just trying to show the location of the vibration dampeners. There are many self built bumper variations out there; none of them easy or cheap to do properly.

 

So that's not your vehicle?

 

I did not have a jpg showing the dampeners on my 3, but per below, I do have one showing snow.

 

I have one of those:

 

I see you also have the good wheels on your HSE.

 

That one was the SE. My HSE is white. I do have 4 of those wheels for the HSE and 4 of the 19" wheels too. You can never have too many options.

 

So I ordered these lights from an ExPo member a couple of weeks ago. Naively, I just thought the lights would have everything I need. They came with the brackets to mount on a brush bar, which I don't have and no plans to purchase. I'm fairly certain I can figure out a different mounting method, but I'm really confused (after reading several threads) on which way to wire/connect the lights. Seems there are remote or wireless options, hardwiring with an internal switch, or some combo of the two. To be honest, as much as I like the aesthetics of having an internal switch, I'm looking for the easiest and most cost effective way to get these lights working. Is the type of connector in the pic, the standard for lights? What type of connectors, relays, etc might I need for this? is there any risk of damaging the lighting system given the Xenon headlights or anything?

 

You will have to use a relay, perhaps sucking solenoid power off the upper beam circuit but with a cut off switch located inside - also not simple either.

There is no simple way to mount the lights, nor is there a simple way to wire them. You have the correct idea however, go thru the various forums and see what others have done and implement the good ideas.
