Hello,

I have a set of Bosch old school rally lights and I have seen folks who have the same body style as mine mount their lights through the front bumper (see pics). How is this accomplished and do I need any additional parts to mount these up? Also, anyone who has done this around here and would be willing to help (my knowledge and tools are limited) there would be good eats and beer waiting!

Thanks 2112

I'd try searching somewhere like Subaruoutback.org, since they tend to focus a bit more on the newer models, and the Outback specifically.

 

If the newer bumpers are anything like the old ones, there is a thin metal upper support right underneath the plastic at the top. The plastic cover is attached to this with several expanding push clips. Drill an appropriate sized hole and stick the mounting bolt through and attach with a nut and washer on the bottom side. You may be able to do this with the bumper still in place by removing the grille. If I were a gamblin' man, i'd bet you are very likely to find a write-up for the exact process on the aforementioned website.

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.
