Possibly, but they are specifically designed for the LR lights.

If you have a search on the web, youll soon see there is loads of good spotlight brackets for tubular front bars.

Cheers.

In principal HID is the way to go, but it looks a bit odd when paired with the not so white halogen lights and both are on at the same time (something I've seen on some mercs twin head lamps) also you don't get an instant bright light with HID.

As for the lamps in the link who knows what the quality of the materials used is like, there's other HID lamps on the market at twice the price.

You won't need any specific backets as the lamps bolt through the metal plate within the A bar and for road use driving lamps are better than spots as they have a broarder beam.

Have you put it on yet?
i have read the fitting instructions as you need to take the front bumper off, cut and refit. so have left it for the moment, so when i have a bit more time to waxoyl all around chassis while it's all off if you have fit any pics?
also how have you got on with the spots?
 
im waiting to finishing recoverying from my knee opp but once i have fitted the bar i will upload photos

yes i too was not a happy bunny when i found out that the bumber needs cutting
