Hi,
I overbought some military LED headlights and have six, and only need the two. I won't put them on my M-37 which I hope to restore to "near" original. So I was thinking about putting up a 'roll bar' style bar in the back bed of the deuce and use it for a light mount. It would be purely cosmetic in lieu of functional due to the extreme cost of making it truley functional while working from a M105 bed for a mount.
So anyway, these headlights we see on sale here in the classifieds have the buckets with them. I was hoping someone out there had some info or ideas on how to mount these where I could swivel them and lock them down while going down the road where they would not come loose. I do want to turn and adjust them for different purposes. I will be putting a minimum of two lights above the cab in this way, and may go with four.
Any materials out there readily available I could use to mount and swivel? Any other ideas. I'll attach a picture of the lights out of the box for reference. Pretty cool lights, and not cheap, but gotta use them for something. The green fever bit me when they came up for sale.
