    Where can I get one of these double mounts? I already have the normal ditch brackets but I would like to buy one of the double brackets and use one of the holes for a CB antenna. I just can't find where they are sold! Thanks!

    I bought the extensions from @CaliRaisedLed
    I was originally going to mount a CB there as well but found the extra light to be invaluable during my night-time adventures. I'm using the C4 tailgate mount for my CB antenna.

    @ragofabrication sells the same extension bracket as well. I would call Melissa up and she can get you a good price on them.

    Finally got the lights mounted and ghetto rigged to test my harness. I'm still half way through putting in a bussmann fuse panel but these will do for now. Just day time photos but they sure are bright at night.

    These will be removed when not in use because we can't have nice things in Boston without them getting stolen. Next year I'll fab up a method to keep them from being stolen using a locking mechanism.

    Photos of my harnesses I made, converted the plugs to Deutsche connectors.

    CBI brackets with Rigid Side Shooters, flood pattern. Definitely have needed them on the trail a few times, totally worth it. Just installed my Safari Snorkel and now the bracket is making contact with the snorkel and keeping it from being secured to the a-Pillar so I’ll have to grind it down a bit. Easy fix. 81F03AB9-D985-4226-A972-ADE72C5B0620.jpg8DF97335-FB66-4317-881E-DF1474C87C64.jpg
