Light mounting bracket

I was wondering if anyone had a mounting bracket for a front light for the wrecker-only application used on the left front fender.
The reason if that I think that the IR or Fog light in the single armored case will fit in this bracket with some minor modification.
Has anyone done this?
Inquiring minds need to know.
If you have one (bracket) please e-mail me a picture if you can.
Thanks,
Jim

lighting mounting

I agree and that is where they are right now but I thought that they would be better protected by placing them just inboard of the turn signals as the Wrecker-Only lights are mounted.
I have them centered on the outboard vertical bar of the grill and they look good but seem to be militarily incorrect.
The left light would block some of the blackout head lamp illumination if in the field on a genuine military mission. This would also leve them more vulnerable for damage due to brush contacting the bumper area.
I would still like to see one of those brackets. You know how it is when you get an idea in your head and have to draw yourself a diagram from time to time.

Okay, since you insist. Images from my cranetruck with a warning light from an M543 wrecker. The distance from side to side on the inside is 6 inches, the second image shows the light housing in place and the 3rd image is from my son's M37 and it should fit without modification.

Edit: As usual, right click and open link in new window for full resolution.
