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

 

thanks bro

 

nice idea

 

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

 

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..>!!!

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.

 

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.

 

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.

 

Great mod! I might do that



Is that a CB radio/Scanner I see also?

dave, is your maxima a police crusier?

 

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!!!

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

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!

 

 

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.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Thanks

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

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.

You car is awesome.

 

thank you 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. Anyway for those that were wondering the 4d maglite was 19.97 and the mount (came with 2) was 3.98. Thanks again maximadave

 

your welcome

 

Stubid cops :

 

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....

 

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

 

your welcome

 

Texas Mag Lite

 

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

mag light install

 

Holy Crap

 

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

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... )
