install auxiliary lights behind the grille.

Hi, I have a 2019 Mazda CX-5 and would like to install auxiliary lights behind the grille. Does anyone have pictures or tips?
I’m considering LED light bars or round spotlights – any recommendations?

I think you'll block a substantial amount of air flow. Are you doing it for looks?

personally I'd put small ones down near the bottom, in the air dam, and not in front of the radiator. And notice I said small.

Yes

Yes

Do you have the roof bars? Put the light bar up there. If you don't have the roof bars, install them, and still put the light bar up there.

I want a clean install that looks sleek and deters thieves.
