Hi Patton,
I started on my first BJ8 by mounting the to the splash pan and had exactly
the result the Keith describes.
To solve it I put an "L" shaped bracket up from the bumper iron to the
bottom surface of the splash pan and then bolted the lights through the pan
and the "L" bracket. Worked a treat :-)

Patton,
I would not mount it to the spash shield. Seems to me it would allow the
whole light to flutter and thus be annoying. I modified a pair of bumper
brackets and mounted mine to that. Solid as a rock. Of course, I am front
bumperless anyway.
