I want to mount one on the roof. If I put it in the middle then anyone in the truck can use it.

alright, so my window slant is less steep then the bracket on the spotlight (its a unity H1 so its from the 50's). i read in another YT thread that somone had a 2nd gen pickup, and bought brackets at napa for a 1st gen runner, i called about 10 napa's and noboy had them, so im gonna try to make a wedge out of wood...

and if you wanna try this at home...GET A DREMEL!!!! mine broke, and it turned a 20 minite job into a 2+ day job

got my spotlight installed!!!!!

i used a wood wedge to make up for the windsheild slant difference, and tomorrow i am running the wires and putting the interior a-pillar cover back on.

hey toyospearo, do you have any pics iof how you modified your bracket to make up for the window slant difference?
