i think it would be illegal if they were that big!
i doubt it is illegal, just make it tidy and neat, use brass connectors because they wont leak, or you can do what some other guys do on here, bolt the outlet on the outside just above the bumper, theres a recent thread with some pictures somewhere.

The way you have your outlets is best jaykie as they will not get damaged if you accidentally reverse up to a wall/car/hedge.
