Here is the rear reverse light on my S.I wanted to kinda keep the round rally style look.(like the ones mounted on the bootlid)The light is actually off a early Mustang foglight set up(I still have the matching mate)I painted it krinkle finish.The bracket is homemade and bolts into the existing hole in the later style valance I put on the car when I put it together.

how many lights will you be mounting up front?

I made brackets for temporary mounting of two spots. I plan to create a bar with tabs to mount 3 or 4 lights, which will mount to the brackets I made. This way you could easily remove the bar for grill removal and maint. I'd be happy to send you preliminary drawings.

Personally, I don't care for the straight bar look. Too plain for such a beautifully designed nose.

Ok, none of that!  I am going to install some rear spot/reverse lights on my mini and was looking for some pics of how others have done it.  The ones I have are Wipac(may be actually front spots) and are rectangular in shape, with a thread that swivels. I plan on mounting these under the bumper, on both sides. I also have a pair of lucas spots to mount up front and I am still trying to find the perfect way to mount those as well. I think I may make something like a straight bar the size of the corner bars.
