Default Rectangle fog lights

I've been looking around, and I saw a picture of a Ram with some large rectangle lights kinda inside the bumper. I think they are Hella's but I'm not positive. Anyone know how I could mount some like that?

If you have a stock bumper, there are pre-cut holes made for lights. Two circular ones (3 1/2" I believe) on the outsides, and two pretty large rectangular ones in the middle. You can just drill them right into it and wire them up.

I was looking at Hella 550's, but I don't see how I can mount them using those holes. I'm prolly gonna put Amber Vinyl over them so I have nice marker/dust lamps for the dez.

Oh, wow. Didn't realize they were so big. 12"x4" almost. They prob would fit height-wise but thats prob. twice as long as the holes. You could mount them to the top of the bumper (I wouldn't), or get a brushguard or something to mount them on.
