    I have some led lights coming my way, and I'm looking for some advice as to how to mount them. I really would like to mount them near the a pillars by the windshield if possible. I've seen them mounted there on 2nd gens with the Relentless Fab hood brackets, and Relentless said that he doesn't have a way to mount them in the same way on 1st gens.

    If any of you have some ideas of how to accomplish putting them in that location if appreciate the advice. Thanks!

    so do you want it on the A-pillar like a cop car? on the roof like a hunting rig? or on the hood like relentless does for 2nd gens?

    Just because relentless does not make a mount for 1st gens doesn't mean that one can not be made. You will probably end up having to fabricate something yourself.

    no.

    no one makes brackets for 1st gens cause there is no real room for them to fit on our trucks like 2nd gens.

    only 1st gen i have seen do this is Chad i believe and his are welded to the hood.
