Abstract
A light mounting system for a motor vehicle. The system includes a tubular light mounting member, and a vehicle light mount bracket that extends from the mounting member and that receives a vehicle light mounted thereto. A bumper mount bracket extends from the light mount member and facilitates mounting of the member to a vehicle bumper mount. The mounting member extends generally upwardly and inwardly from the vehicle bumper mount to minimize exposure of the mounting member to bumper contact forces, and to allow the vehicle lights to be mounted in close proximity to the vehicle driving surface to provide maximum illumination of the driving surface.
