Default Where to mount rocker lights?

Guys,

Looking for opinions here. I am relocating my rear lights on my rocker. i have a set of Heartland medium billet tears ready to be mounted. I was thinking about mounting them about an inch above the swingarm, as close to the seat as possible. Does anyone else have any ideas?

I've checked clearences, and everything looks good. I only have one shot to drill the holes, so I don't want to screw up!!

thanks

Are you relocating on the fender themselves?? I would like to relocate mine on to the swingarm close to the axle??? that would be my suggestion...
