I'm wondering how long I can get by here in SoCal without a front plate. I'd like to mount it on the passenger side as you did, but I'd like an actual mounting bracket if possible.

Same here. I already got a ticket. Lol
I'm waiting for a mounting bracket that doesn't require drilling. For now I put it back on where it was

You can use the stock mount with a couple bolts. I didn't do that because I wanted the plate to be as close the the bumper as possible to not interfere with the light coming from the Onx6 on that side.

I'd rather not drill if possible too, but I'm not so sure that's possible in that location. I don't want to tempt fate, but the truck just looks so good without a front plate.

Ahh, gotcha. I hadn't thought about trying to adapt the stock mount for that location - I'll check that out.

Bracket

Someone posted this on another thread. An interesting idea.

I too am required to run a front plate, and have been looking at this as an option. But I also want to put Onx6 light on my truck.

Do you think the bracket can be modified to move the light up a bit?

If you look closely at the sto-n-sho setup video, and then look closely at the light mounting of the Onx6, it looks like it would only take half an inch or so to have the light shine over the sto-n-sh plate when mounted.

For those of you who bought this kit did you look at the 30" that sits higher on the grill?

I'm torn between these two and would like to know what factors influenced your decision to buy the smaller one.

I chose the 10" for ease of installation. I figured I could always add a 30" later if I felt it was needed.

Hmmm. I need to take the front grill off to adjust it again so I'll look more closely but I don't think it can be moved at all.

IIRC the 10" puts out more light?



Yeah, that's what Nick at Appolo Optics told me which coupled with the ease of installation led me in that direction. I the the 30" was more of a flood type light versus a driving combo but the BD site would clarify.
