i have an 08 chevy silverado LT extended cab i have a custum headache rack and i wanna put some auxiliary backup lights but i dont know were or how to do it. i have 3 inch gap between the cross members of the headache rack were i want to mount them but i dont know how to secure them properly. does any one have any suggestions as to how i can mount them, or which lights would be best. or on the other hand does any one have any ideas to other mounting locations that dont look tacky, like under the the body, but i dont think right under the bumper would look good..any way does any one know of any other  mounting points preferably with factory holes lol..thanks

Well heres some pics guys like i said their is a 3 inch vertical gap between the two top crossmembers were i want to mount them. Well i hate to admit it but i dont want to mess up the piant cause it cost a bit to paint the steel lol but i dont want to tack the lights on either way(in case service is needed on them ), i was thinkin maybe steel zip ties but i dont know if they will hold up against vibration ect. (as well as scratch the hell out of my paint) and i cant figure out how to bolt them on,self tapping screw?? but dont think i can fit a standard drill..well if yall have any suggestions as to how to mount them im all ears!!! or if any one knows of any alternative mounting points i''''''''m open, like i said im lookin for a flush clean look. is their any points under the body? just i dont wanna mount them under the bumper yall know what i mean they look tacky just their under the bumper starrin at ya. and as far as lights im thinkin of some drivin lights from advaced auto parts. like i said im open to ideas and lookin for help, thanks for your time
