Ford Ranger FX4 PX3 Driving Lights Install without Bull Bar

Installing Driving Lights on Ford Ranger without Bull Bar or Nudge Bar

Mounting Driving Lights without Bull Bar

Here is an article about me replacing my existing Lightbar Install with a set of Driving Lights and a new Lightbar. All on a Ford Ranger without a Nudgebar or Bull bar Installed.

Please Note – This does require a bit of wiring and electrical knowledge, so if you are unsure seek some assistance.

Parts

Parts that I used for this project are:

First thing you are going to need is one of these Lightbar Number Plate Mounts. I bought mine of Amazon because it was cheaper but you can get them from eBay, Supercheap Auto, Autobarn and Repco.
Set of XTM Nebula LED 224 Driving Lights that were on special for $50 at the time from BCF. Thanks OzBargain!. Here is a photo to prove it!
Lightbar. I bought a Enduralight LED Driving Light Kit which included a wiring harness which I used for this install.
Headlight Harness. I bought a Lightforce Headlight Patch Harness Suits Ford Ranger.

Other items you will need include wiring tools such as soldering iron, some 12V DC cable, cable strippers and cutters.

The Install

I installed the wiring harness into the car and the Headlight Patch Cable. (I didn't wire any of the lights during this process just yet).
Next was mounting the driving lights to the number plate mount. Due to its width, I only used two of the Driving Light holes and then bolted through. I did need an additional bolt (which was smaller) due to the supplied bolts being very big and not fitting through the plate mount holes.
I used the supplied mounts for the lightbar and bolted that to the number plate mount.
I then ran the cabling to the lights to where the cable was best suited. Wiring it up into the wiring harness. Because I had 3 lights running on the 1 Harness, I need to do some additional wiring and cabling. The wiring kit I used from the Lightbar purchase only had 1 light connector.
Once wired and tested the lights. I fitted the mount back to the number plate spot. This is held in by screws.
Due to the weight of the driving lights, it wasn't entirely secure. So I used cable sites from the back of the driving light brackets through the grill and secured to the grill which is very sterdy now.
