Default Looking for some light mounts

I have the H3X SS squared front brush gaurd on my 08 Alpha and was wondering if anyone knows of someone making light mounts that will work on it? I'd like to add some lights to the front.

I may be completely wrong on the market for the brush guard you have but it seems that it is a little harder to get than the round tube black guards. I don't know what type of mounts you are leaning to but it might be best, $$ wise, to keep that brushguard intact and not drill any holes for light tabs.

I have never seen that guard in person.

Would it be possible to drill a hole in the rear of it and bolt some simple "L" brackets on it?

Moving outside the box on this, I have something in mind. With pesticide spraying equipment, nozzles are often mounted to square stock on the back of a spray rig. Its basically a square bracket that interlocks on one side. If they are large enough, I think with maybe a rubber piece between that and the chrome, you could mount with little to no damage. I checked the Tee-Jet site but didnt find anything off-hand and I am not at work right now so I cant go grab a part number. If you golf, go check out the maintenance shack or if you have a "John Deere Landscapes" or something similar in your area stop and ask.

yeah.... something like that is exactly what I am thinking the end look would be.... but like you said... that would make no damage.
