Re: Maglite install
Another little thing you could think about doing with this.. Get another set of the clips and bolt (or epoxy) a magnet to it so you can stick the flashlight under your truck if you ever have to climb under to do work at night...

Re: Maglite install
I went with small and large Quick Fists for flashlight and fire extinguisher - they work great:

Re: Maglite install
That's the first I heard of Quick Fists, but they look sweet. Good find! I need the large one for my fire extinguisher. I've been trying to decide where to mount it. Any ideas?

Did you do this too? I know I got the idea from somebody but don't remember who or where.

Re: Maglite install
Looks nice and clean!  I guess I will have to do something like that, right now my maglite resides in a box with jumper,cables, snatch strap, shakles, etc. in the back

Re: Maglite install
Looks good and practicle. I wonder if they make one to hold a Sig Sauer?

I have one called an "Off Duty" rig, by Fobus. I need a mount for my Asp baton.

Re: Maglite install
Good Job. Iv'e been looking for a spot for the MagLite and my 9mm 
Hows the 3 cell LED Maglite??
I bought an LED head lamp (from REI) for camping, hiking and it works great for working on the truck. It frees up your hands and puts the light where you are looking.

Those LED headlamps are fantastic. I use one for hiking, working on the vehicle, and for the numerous times this third world state I live in loses power.
Batteries seem to last forever.

Re: Maglite install
I mounted a MagLite on the tool box I have in the cargo area using these brackets. I placed a Shakelight in each map pocket on the seatbacks. But the seat mount obviously has great utility!
I got my brackets at Home Depot - odd they didn't have them at your store as our local store has quite a stock of them all of the time.

Re: Maglite install
The LED maglites are 3 watts, which is a lot for an LED. They're so bright it hurts to look at them and it focuses into a nice solid beam. You can buy upgrade LEDs at wally world for $20 if you already have a maglite.
