Are these above or below bumper lights (i.e. big round ones or rectangular lights)?

I installed my big round ones on the bumper mounting points, as I removed my front bumper.

There used to be a bracket that attached to the vertical supports behind the grille that you could mount the light on. I have not seen one for sale in ages except one instance on ebay. I suppose it would not be hard to fab something.

If you mount the lights well on the bumper I don't see how vibration would be a problem. If the bumpers are tight and the light is tight there would be no difference.

I don't know where you plan on mounting the switch, but on my old car I removed lighter assembly and stuck it in there. Looked kinda cool, as I wired the switch to be lit all the time.
