you could see the broken one was half snapped by the rust mark

all fixed, put new bolts in it.

Vacuumed the carpets and seats, fixed the rear roof console lights and cleaned all of the wifes and kids junk from under the seats, in the glove box, in the center console....

Are you talking about the spots on the bonnet db ? if so then i think they look wrong and may attract unwanted attention i think roof mount would look less out of place for a second set.

Yeah, I was worried about the attention...
The only reason I'm concerned about the roof is because I'm happier drilling throught the bonnet than though the cab

They will likely glare up your bonnet pretty bad and do as much harm as good. on the roof a couple hundred mm back from the windscreen.

Bolt them to a roof rail, then sneak the loom up underneath your snorkel if you really dont wanna drill a hole.

I was thinking that but its well below the refractive index, would ony glare off the shit on the bonnet, there's a good idea, hmm
Also, I see shtloads of wranglers with windshiled lights, the glare can't be too bad
