Once you remove your bumper you will see that the underlying structure to
which the bumper is attached has two oblong holes on top.  If you measure
accurately and very carefully, at least three or four times, you will be
able to drill holes in the top of the bumper and align them with the holes
underneath.  I was able to mount my Hella XL driving lights like this
without using spacers.

Good luck!

Chris.

Subject: front aux. lights-clearance issue ???

i am planning on adding more lights to the front of my
van as unless it is really dark out i can't even tell
they're on...was going to mount them on the bumper,
but i have never had the bumper off the van and was
wondering how much clearance there is in there between
the body and the front of the bumper? and inch or so?
was just wondering so i did not buy something that
would not fit with out modification...anyone have any
brand or light choices that would fit my project?
any comments appreciated...
