Gotcha and thanks. I was going to use those same holes and just extend using a mending plate with a hole drilled where the mount is centered. Any reason you went with the L bracket instead?

Looks sick. Our cactus trucks are nearly twins. I’ve gotten a lot of inspiration from yours. I’ll post pics once everything is dialed.
I appreciate that man, the truck is sick!

I did the L cause I wanted it to be centered up down left right. Also the bolt that mounts the light to the brackets is like 1.5 inches long so it has to get up a bit. I couldn’t find any A piller style brackets that weren’t like 4-5 inches tall so I tried these guys. Bit of “fabrication” but pretty simple to get it to all fit, would be ideal if I could weld and make a little bracket but this was closest I could find off Amazon. 16$ experiment as oppose to trying anything more expensive

Update on this. Cut the bracket some more so the connection could fit.
This pic is before the Final Cut.
I took about 3/4 inch off the top.

I got the lights in and I’ve been having issues with one of the pods main beam and a backlight flicker. Luckily the company I ordered from has great customer service and a replacement pod is in the mail. I’m the mean time I was able to shove a zip tie inside the side of the connector to make the backlight work at least but still no main beam.
Turned out exactly as I planned. Can’t wait to get the replacement! I’ve attached a few pics to show mounting locations and such for others.
