Re: Mag lite-where?
I would not recommend putting it over head - ever. It will leave one hell of a knot
on your head the one time it falls....
Did you pick up a set of the mag lite clips?
I had mine mounted to the side of the drivers seat, just inside the door (you could
put it on the floor there also). That was pretty handy. However one of my fire
extinguishers now resides there, so I mounted the maglight on the passenger side edge
of the enter console, as far fowards and down as was reasonable. Suprisingly, it
does not interfer with the passenger seat at all.
If you have a 3-cell, you can mount it vertically to the back of the center console.
A 4-cell will not fit there.
BTW - mines a 98 also, so I know it will fit. =)
FYI, those same mag lights/clips are the same size as a roller fairlead, its a great
thing for holding your front license plate after you put a winch on.

Fascinating - I've been using them for 20+ years, and have found them damn

had several stolen or lost. But no vehicle of mine has been without one
sincre I got my first one in 1981 or so.
