Mark. Ace Hardware/Lumber stores may or may not have them. If you see one while driving around, check them out. I was at a Lowes and they did not have them. I haven't checked at Walmart or Home Depot yet. Both of those would be good places to check.

That's exactly where I mounted mine. It was too big to go anywhere else. I have the 6 D-cell battery maglite. Nice, bright, and best of all it's a legal beater (as I call it)

Haha, sorry Channing, had to.

Mark, I'll try to get a picture for you later on, but I mounted mine where the OS handle is on my side (got the idea from Sean). You have an '02 so it's positioned differently, but mine is right on the A-pillar and really easy to get to. It holds really strong and doesn't get in my way of sight, just a thought.

Yeah it's very easy to get to, and doesn't get in my way because that's where the pillar is anyway. Those mounts hold it pretty well too, I haven't had it turn or come loose yet.

I had mine mounted on the A-pillar. I need to get some brackets, but figure out where to mount it this time.
