Flashlight mount

Thought I'd share... Just some clips I had for mounting D cell flashlights (maybe from Walmart???). I got tired of my light sliding all around in the glove compartment so I taped then screwed these in place. Seems to be out of the way enough when open and no more sliding when closed.

 

Nice little mod. I think I like mounting a flashlight there better then on the driver's seat. Pretty sure I'll be stealing that idea. Thanks!!!

 

Thanks! I actually did put it on the side of my driver seat in my 07 Tacoma. Turns out you couldn't get it unless the driver door was open.

 

I still like the idea of putting it under the lid of the center console, will definitely be doing this.

 

Great idea op! Another place to put it is in between the seat and center console. It fits perfectly and scratchs nothing but the flashlight. Hasn't come out under heavy braking either.

 

I like that other utility tool in the glove box haha looks like it says Glock on it.

 

Pre-tweak. Used some friction broom clips I had laying around from Walmart, they do the trick for now and I have no issues with access/locking while my center console is full.

 

Indeed it does

 

I like this setup but am curious if you are able to get the flashlight out with the door closed?

 

I've got a similar setup but with the C-cell clamps and a high-intensity LED light. But no, it's not accesible until I open the door and get out. I've got a smaller one in the corner of my console if I need one inside.

Don't rouge french fries hit it?

 

It serves dual purpose. This way if I need an emergency snack, I'll have a build up of months worth of fries at my disposal!

 

great ideas, thanks

 

I have mine that way too....just slide forward.
