So keeping in mind I have never done a light kit, here are some suggestions:

 

Front - try to get this just under the frame horns as close as reasonable to the front air dam. Too low and you might bash the tube if you pull in too close to a curb.

Rear - this is a tough one. If you get the tube between the bumper and the spare tire, it might be a bit too high to light the ground as well (you would be able to see the tube if you don't have a lowered suspension). Two shorter tubes might have worked better - running the length of the rear rocker panel just behind the wheel.

Sides - you might need to create some 90 degree brackets that bolt to various holes under the body just inside the rockers. This would be easiest if you already had running boards or even nerf bars.

 

The transformer could be zip tied virtually anywhere if it is weather sealed. Make sure you have an on/off switch at the dash so you can turn it off if the cops don't like it.

 

Hope it goes well. Post a photo of the project when you are done. Make sure you use a tripod and no flash on the camera for the most flattering effect.

remember the transformer has to be mounted to a metal surface. this way you will have a stronger connection!

i would put the side tubes on the box of the truck... if you dont you will get cracks in the tubes... haha i found this out the hardway!! but its a streetglow kit and they have a lifetime warrenty so yeah.... the front i would put on the plastic skid plate! the rear one i would mount right behind the spare tire....and if possible get another kit and put on this inner frame so you will loose the dead zone in the center...but since its streetglow you may not have that deadzone..... :D
