Mag Lite mount
got my clips at the Do-It Center...I think im goin to look into getting a new jack cover and switch the position of mine to vertical...in case anyone was thinking of mounting theres back there...horizontal doesnt work so well...
Mine chills on my duty belt flashlight ring that I slump over my passanger seats head rest until I bring the whole she-bang inside...that way its ALWAYS handy...cant wait till I cough up the moolah for the Stinger XDT
I just got my clips from Underdog today, along with my metal tailgate-handle.
I've got the 4-D Cell light, which is a little bigger than some of the ones posted here. I currently have it hung with some zip-ties from a thin metal hook that is strong enough to support it, but weak enough to bend and allow quick removal of the light if needed in an emergency (beating someone's head in falls into that category, right?).
I've debated the back wall (mine's a standard cab), and the driver's-side floor board between the door and seat....
I like the C-pillar idea, but it would scare me to be in an accident with a 5 pound chunk of metal behind your head...
Has anyone considered mounting it below the steering column? It's just an idea, and I can check to see if it would clear your knees and stuff, but that would be out of the way, yet extremely easy to get to if needed....maybe?

I've got a 3D cell and then a 6D cell, I dont think I will mount the 6 unless I use a few extra clips, but I am going to mount the 3 under the rear window.
the 6 is more for bragging rights, "you call that a flashlight, this is a flashlight" kinda thing!

I mounted up my 4-D cell Mag-Lite yesterday with the clips from Underdog.
I put it horizontally, below the rear-window, below the ridge in the panel. Since I have a standard cab, it had to be below the ridge for the seats not to hit it, since it's longer than the gap between the two seats.
It's extremely easy to grab with my right hand (just reach back like you're unbuckling your seat belt, but a little farther!).

Mag Lite mount
I have seen alot of you with your mag lites mounted to your A-pillar. I have also read that you just screw them into the existing holes were your grab bar used to be.
My question is what if you dont have a grab bar? Can you just screw/mount the mag lite clips straight into the A-pillar?
