I'd cut the tow hook thing off if it was me, got to be easier than fabbing up new brackets...

Do not cut the tow hook off that is just dangerous in the event of needing recovery

I was probably gonna go for britax ones as they look pretty good for fairly cheap. If I had unlimited funds would either go for light force or one of these led bar lights
