I had a Land Cruiser and put fog, driving, and rain lights on it, and made guards like yours for all of them.
BTW, you are losing 10-20% of the brightness with that. Check it out with a light meter some night.
I originally attached it with safety wire, but decided to go to the wire loom clips so that I can remove it easily... 5 seconds with no tools... so I can get it off easy for night if necessary...
As a side benefit, the rubber coating on the wire clips cushions the guard against the lens...
Brilliant engineering?... nope, dumb luck...
