A-pillar lights

Is it possible to mount 6" round lights on the A-pillar? I'm not into the square ones that everyone mounts to the hood. I have been trying to find out if you can mount the round ones just to the body some how. Anyone know of any that have been done this way?

 

Cops have them, slap one of these in and you’ll be pulling people over in no time.

Well I was looking for something more like what Jeeps have. I'm not looking to be making holes in my pillar.

 

how else would you attached something to the A-pillar? It's a smooth surface with no mounts on there.

 

You want them on the inside or out?
I think ridgid makes round ones that look nice

 

Why not mount a round to a hood bracket? You just need a bracket forward enough to not cause issues when opening the hood, but it can be done.

 

You mean like a ditch light?

They sell brackets for that.

 

Yeah just mount whatever you want to a ditch light bracket.

 

Yes, that's what I've decided on. Sometimes I think I'm gonna reinvent the wheel, just for fun. Hood brackets will do fine.

 

Ok, here is the finished project. I'm still working on finding the switch I want in the dash, so I still have the cheesy one that came with the KC Slimlite LED. But they fit nicely on the hood brackets. There is a small amount of wobble, but I think that will be fixed with better hardware.

 

Cheaper than I thought they’d be

 

I'm a bit late to this thread, but one alternative to this I've been looking at for a while now is the Whelen Arges.

It's meant to be mounted to the fender with a hole drilled through the side, but I think if you got it with just the flat base you might be able to mount it to a ditch light bracket. It's a little more money than I want to spend on a spotlight right now, but I can't find anyone else who has tried it yet so I might have to take one for the team and be the first to try it out.
