KC Daylighter/HiLighter Mounts

Hey all,

I was wondering if those of you that have them could show me your mounting options for the KC lights. I have a factory Toyota brush guard, and the light mounts are at an angle that will not work with the KC lights, the angle is forward facing and if I mount the lights upside down they will be tilted up shining the light to the stars...not very helpful. So I need some ideas. Thanks in advance.

I don't know about KC's products, but I'm fixin to buy some Lightforce lights and they specifically say not to mount them upside down unless you contact them first.

I dunno if it will make any difference, and I didn't care much because I'm not planning on doing that - but you may take that into consideration if you considering that.

Sorry, can't help you with bumper mounts though.

If you were in the Denver, Colorado area I could weld you some light tabs in like 10 min, i'm sure there are some yotatech members in your area that would be willing to lend a hand.

you can adjust the angle before you tighten them down... might be enough depending on the angle of the tab

This is a bit different then what you maybe looking for but if you have the area what I did was cut a few tabs of 1/4 drilled them to fit the stud on the lights then welded them on where I wanted them and gave them the angle I wanted.

Here was my solution after deciding roof mounts get ripped off, bumper mounts get knocked/ripped/smashed off
