Default Clean way to mount some cargo/work lamps.

I searched hi and low and wanted a simple no drill way to mount a pair of work lights and was about to give up and buy a full headache rack until I came across this:

I ordered and installed and it actually looks pretty nice IMHO so I figured Id post about it.

It has 5 attachment points on the lower rear deck and 2 more on top which I may use for a LED strobe deck for when i'm towing.

Wouldn't a spot/fog light hooked up to a magnet and a cig outlet work?

A important factor for me is it must look "clean" like something that could have been a factory option and not slapped together, this is why I like to use my factory harness for all my lights and factory mounting points.
