Default New lights behind the grille.. whaddaya think?

Well, I did the mod that others talked about in this thread:
https://dodgeforum.com/m_443200/tm.htm

I loved the look. I dragged my feet on it for about 6 or so months. And I finally decided to buy the lights and do it. I put the lights in.. centered them best I could.. I put about 21 inches in between the lights. I know it's an odd number.. but I had to make sure I cleared some of the other equipment already on the truck. I ran the lines thru the firewall and put some silocone over the hole in the rubber boots I went thru. I was going to use a switch that I had bought off eBay but I didn't have a 3/4" drill bit. So I used the switch the kit came with and put it in the center counsle on the ceiling. I think it turned out nice. Let me know what you think.

(because the picture files are kinda big.. I'm going to add a couple of posts)

How do you have the lights mounted? Specifically the hardware/drill points.
