Default Re: Where the heck is my engine compartment light?

Advance auto has the clip to battery cigarette lighter adapter. $2.69 + the magnetic plug in light with draw cord $6.69 works modular when you need it. Keep mine in a container in the engine compartment for certain times

Default Re: Where the heck is my engine compartment light?

I didnt receive it yet The guy said it has a magnet at the light base and also a suction cup as you can see in the pic of the item.
I will get thin outside 3m double sided tape and mount it on the hood around the same spot as marin8703.

If the tape doesnt hold up ther are spots on the hood were the metal is doubled up and might be screwed to.

I will probobly have it by the weekend.

marin8703 I recieved my light .It has the suction cup
(F5 it will work on a vet or the H3 fenders )

and theres a magnet under the light .
I noticed that there are raised tabs on the bottom.(easy to cut off if needed)
Does yours have a flat surface? how did you mount the tape.

I need to pop the hood and find a nice mounting spot.

Not sure if Ill tape it or screw it.Im out of tape so I will need to pick some up.

Maybe on the top of the battery box if it fits then nut/bolt it from the underside of the box.(kinda like the compressor install.)


Pick of the bottom

Possible mounting spot, using flush bolt heads from the bottom of the cover

Another angle.

Any thoughts on this spot .
It would be firmly mounted.
I dont have time to put it in today and I will be needing some SS bolts/nuts/washers and a fuse.

Default Re: Where the heck is my engine compartment light?

i used two pices of double sided tape (back to back) and cut it to fit between the weird tabs (seemed like ti would be a pain to cut those things off, hehe). Im still wondering why mine didnt have a magnet or suction cup, hehe, no biggie. that looks like a good place to mount it. im still trying to post a pic of mine but somehow im comming out retarded on this one. You ordered the thing got it and posted pics and i cant even take a pic yet . Oh and that compressor setup is sweet as hell, i want to do that too, they should make that optional from the factory, great job.
