Default Off-road light mounting

Hi guys, I am looking to mount 2-4 off-road lights on the front of my truck because I spend a lot of time on private roads at night with tons of wildlife kicking around.

I have looked at the bull-bars but I don't like them for the simple reason that they preclude using tow-hooks (which may just come in handy). I have seen some simple bars on other trucks that allow the mounting of these lights in front of the grille but I can't find anything for my 09 Dak.

Any suggestions?

I ran into the same problem you did. After fabricating my own lightbar, problem solved.

Where do you have that thing mounted to? I would be stoked to bust out my welder and make this into a weekend project!
