My Maglite mod
 

alot of people have been emailing me on this so I wanted to post different pics.

I bought the Maglite at Home Depot for about $18 bucks. Its a 4D size Maglite and you can get it in different colors. The mounts are sold in pairs so you only need one, they are about $3-$4. Just screw in the mount to the body of the car and you are done.

A anti car-jacking mod for the Max!

Thats actually pretty nice. You dont know how many times I wish I had a flashlight in the car with me. Looking for those house numbers with no lighting. I just came from Home Depot. I wish I saw the thread before <> oh well, trip #2 manana.

u da man maximadave....i'm doing this mod this weekend....ur car is looking tight

Re: Re: My Maglite mod
 

thanks bro;)

nice idea:thumbsup:

Do you need to drill a hole in your body or not?

Looks good, man... Whats its purpose? To whoop a ricer who trys to get at the max? :)

just a screw hole when mounting the bracket

I thought I was alone.....
 

Well, I'm more ghetto....or cheap --- but mine rests between the drivers seat and and the center console on the chair rail....no clip needed!!

But that is SCHWEEEET!

I can attest to the "handiness" of this little buddy, as the moron who backed-into my rear and tried to flee was a split second from getting this 4-cell beauty flung thru his back window.

Too bad he stopped -- I JUST KNOW i coulda nailed it..>!!! :goofy: :laugh:

g.r.

You and Mag-lights. :)

I'm thinkin on doin that to. :)

Looks like there are going to be a lot more cardomain pages with maglights now. I know I'll probably do it aswell. :nutkick:

that's great....I had a friend do that with a rechargable that's where I'm heading

So, yes or no on drilling a hole? Haha...

I went to home depot this evening. I bought another black 4D maglite (I already have one) and I bought the mounting brackets as well. I plan on putting one maglite on both the driver and passenger side. I used to keep it in the trunk next to the jack but now I will have it next to me and my passenger.:rollsmile

ive had the same mag light in my max for a long time and buying those mounts would help it from falling under the seat. looks good.:thumbsup:

Great mod! I might do that

:D

Is that a CB radio/Scanner I see also?

dave, is your maxima a police crusier?

:Police: just a scanner....family and friends are in the police and fire departments. I go on ride along sometimes in my car

I shall be visiting home depot this weekend :)

very nice mod....useful and tasteful!!! :thumbsup:

In so far as "anti-carjacking", I've got my steel police-issue expandable 31" beater hidden under my floormat.... :D

someone's gotta police these streets while the cops sit and eat dunkin donuts!

Yo we're you get that.. I could use that instead of a maglight :)

Danny, www.sportsmansguide.com -- best site for camping/police issue items, they have gun holsters, tents, MREs, military issue tactical stuff....all kinds of junk that is useful and cheap!!

highly recommended site for the outdoorsman/enforcer in all of us!

:thumbsup:

Sweet...I'll do that too. Dave you are getting a following with this. :)

Don't be surprised if I show up with it on Saturday night at Fontana.

Re: Re: Re: My Maglite mod
 

Is the mount specific for the Maglite? And what size hole is needed to be drilled?

Re: Re: Re: Re: My Maglite mod
 

Yes it is a branded Maglite mount. The mounting holes are small. Just come out to Fontana and we can do some Maglite installs!

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: My Maglite mod
 

Thanks. Fontana may be a little far for me to come. I live in VA.

Thanks :thumbsup:

I've actually got the holders already, just need that cool Aircraft aluminum Mag. Was at Home Depot last night too but I forgot :slap:.

Thanks again for the info...great idea!

I remember when you first got it installed on your last max. I was quick to go out and get one. Great idea. Still holding up.

Can you believe that out of all the bad a$$ mods you have done to your car, the maglite is the one that gets the best response. :jeffy:

You car is awesome.

thank you :kiss: yours is too. I had a sterling mist 2K that and majestic blue are my favs

Thanks for the great idea maximadave. I just finished installing mine, stopped at Home Depot after work. The hardest part of this mod was finding the damm flashlight section. :grinno: Anyway for those that were wondering the 4d maglite was 19.97 and the mount (came with 2) was 3.98. Thanks again maximadave :bowdown1:

your welcome;)

Stubid cops :tardsmash:

:rofl:

You can say that again. It took me 40 minutes inside HD today..20mns in Returns, 10mns to find that darn flashlight...and 10 mns back in line. That was record fast....:laugh:

I'll jump on this bandwagon and do the MLM (Mag-Lite Mod) too. I have two Mag Lites and untill now I didn't know where to keep them.
thanks maximadave




:thumbsup:

your welcome :kiss:

I have it like that in my other car, I did something a little different in my max...

Holy Crap:eek: :eek: :eek:

Saw this post tonight @ 9 :30, by 10:00 my Mag_lite is no longer rolling around by back seat..... :p

thank you .ORG

PS: I don't think it's a good idea to let your passanger have accses to a whacker ... ( it may be your G-friend... ;) )
