nope, I basically made my own. FYI, the 2021 grill interior space is now smaller than previous and wont fit light bars. I made my own back brace and mounted light bars on the front of the grill.

Tractor Supply sells wireless switches to control sprayers. These same switches can be wired to lights and the remote for the switch can be programmed to the garage door opener switches in your truck. This is how I put lights on my old truck without adding switches in the cab. Worked good for me but I haven’t used it on the new truck yet but I plan to.

Research:
I found a couple cowl/a pillar mounts online. $22, $65, $114
Looks like this is a mount that will actually be correct and not behind antenna.:

You can order mounts separately (3 bolt). Parts 449242 driver and 449243 passenger.
I think mounts and harness are available now. But I think they end up behind antenna still.
I got old style amazon 2 bolt mount version by Dasen for $23 and had to dremel it a bit to get light base to go through and installed BDs universal kit.
Passenger is behind antenna but oh well, works. Seems some of the new ones are too.
Came out nice, good and solid, will test next weekend on a desert overnight.
Unless I get the new ZROADZ mounts before that.

Thank you for this information and pictures. Looking for some ditch light mount options and this is a huge help!

Any other pictures from folks with the mounts & lights installed or feedback on any of the brackets?

If I’m seeing this correctly, your mounts are a couple pieces of bar stock drilled out, and the bolts from the light bar brackets run through the thicker parts of the grill? How stable is the mounting; do you get any shake or bounce from the lights when going down the road?

I want these and the tremor overhead switches to run them.

I just need to figure out how.

That's correct, I used bar stock as you mentioned. The mounts are pretty stable as I had it on the truck for about a year with zero issues. I would still like to see if there's an aftermarket grill to relocate the lights inside. Maybe the aftermarket Raptor grill would work
