This is what I have come up with so far after looking at several types of lights. The first is a flush mount with only needing a small hole drilled in the fender for the wires. I'll protect the wires by running them through a steal tube under the fender. This light is right at the max size I can use and have it fit properly.
Light 2 requires a hole cut in the fender to fit the LED element.
Light 3 also requires a hole cut in the fender for the rubber grommet.
I'm still looking. I would much rather go with a surface mount so not to weaken the fender by having to cut a hole in it. I do like the look and size fit of the last image but there is that dang hole that needs to be cut. LOL
