See my solution. 5 individual led lamps (set) mounted each side. Other option is replacement of fog lights or really small flat lamps in those horizontal slots below fog lamps.

Bugger the day time running lights. Tell us more about that winch hidden behind the factory bumper.
Such winch setup is quite common here. We do not have roos, but do have strict regulations on bumpers and bull bars. There are at least two manufacturers of ready winch mount plates for this setup, but mine is tailor made. In automatic it requires re-location of transmission cooler, but there is enough space for winch. Mine is 12500 lbs t-max. Relays are mounted just by winch and socket for control in the grill. I have two batteries from factory (cold climate setup) and one have been replaced with model with dual terminals. There is also kill switch under the hood. It works nice. This is very good setup, as winch is mounted high, and has no influence on approach angle. Also in quite deep mud winch still stays above the water (while my friend in LR has in already submerged). Thanks for appreciation.
