i forgot that i said i'll post pics a long time ago, been a little busy with school. mine didnt come with a magnet but if it did i would have used that, would be easier to move around. The tape i used (3m double sided) seems to be hoding up pretty good, but when you kind of pull on it or bump it with something it doesnt seem sturdy, like it can come off, but it hasnt yet.

I mounted it by the battery a little back, kind of over the brake fluid, not over it but a little to the side. Tried to put it so it doesnt hit anything.

Also didnt want to put it far forward on the hood, because when im shutting it its gona feel alot more downward force at the front than near the back, which can cauze it to pop off.

sorry for the huge delay in a picture, it always slips my mind. ill try and remember to take a pic with the phone tomorow or as soon as possible.

how big is the magnet that is used, does it seem sturdy? i might get a magnet and glue it to the light or something.

oh and by the way 35 bucks shipped is a pretty good deal.
