Don't know if you have the same type of bucket as a dresser does on your WG, but I cut out the back of the bucket on one I bought for my dresser to run the LED headlight. Pretty much just left the outside ring as most of the cone was cut out.

Lighting is a big deal to us Jeepers. Still have a couple of more lights to install on my Jeep's bumper.

I've been kind of busy with stuff, but did do a little bit of checking and so far only found JW Speaker LED headlights for you. While certainly a quality product, they also are expensive. Apparently Truck Lite does not make one the size you need.

I am still checking around.

Hella or Cibie may have something affordable that could work for you. Not LED, but definitely a quality light.

I'm running the Truck-Lite head light and passing lamps, Custom Dynamics fender tip lamps, tail light board, front and rear turn signals with the Smart Triple Play and signal stabilizer.
