Default Bull Bar Install Question

Did anyone have to remove the front tow hooks when they installed thier bull bars?, Or does it depend on the manufacturer?.

I have a 07' 2500 and from some photos it looks like they will sit just on the outside of it.The two lower bolts look like a pain to get out as they sit just behind the front bumber lip,hard to get to?

Also where did you run the wires for driving lights from the bull bar to the engine compartment without them being seen?

I was looking a this one from ebay:

Thanks in advance

I think the megas have the same tow hook setup as a 2500 so they might be wrong in their listing of what it fits...if it wont fit an 06-08 mega it probably wont fit the 06-08 2500 w/tow hooks either

Mine installed behind the bumper. I had to unbolt like 4 bolts from the tow hooks I think but they don't have to come off.

When I got mine for my Old F150 (2001) the instructions said I had to remove tow hooks. Well, I was weary about it but I did it anyway. Was happy I did because I had to remove them all right, but just because the bull bar brackets mounted sandwiched between the tow hook and the frame. Was happy then.

Not sure about Dodges though.
