I used to have these (lightforce 240 Blitz) on my roof rack, but would like to move them to the front bumper since I don't always use the rack. I probably should have bought the smaller lights but this is what I have and I would like to make them work.

Anyone running these with the stock bumper? Can you share some mounting ideas and pictures?

Thanks,

Rob

 

Anyone running light force 240's on the front of anything ?

 

If you think theyre too big Ill trade yu my Hella 500s.

 

rob,

on a 2nd gen bumper, they wont fit. not deep enough. but if you really try, it will stick out past the bumper.

Bob,

That's exactly the problem. I'm either going to recess them into the grill, make some brackets and only put them on when I need them, or sell them.

I was hoping someone had come up with a clever solution. I like them, they put out a good deal of light for the money just a little too big.

Gangus,

Not looking for a trade, I have some smaller lights.

Thanks,

Rob

 

Robt2k has some lightforces on his 3rd gen. I think he made some brackets--

You should PM him for more info

 

The 240's are massive though. Robt2k's are maybe 140's or 170's? Here's a pic of RobG's 240's on his roof rack:

 

Fantastic pic!

 

robg,

if you plan on recessing your grill, take a look at my writeup on the "satoshi grill mod". it might give you enough room to fit those 240s on the grill. http://www.4runners.org/articles/satoshi

howver, ive seen those 240s on a 4th gen bumper (custom) and those things are massive on the 4th gen, which is a larger vehicle than the 2nd gen. id say either mount them on the roof or find a smaller lighting

They are Massive. When I bought them they were an extra $20 for twice the CP of the smaller lights, couldn't resist. I like the way they look on the roof rack but they are useless as the light off the hood and windshield blinds you. I think I'll make a bracket for them for the front bumper and only put them on for runs. Maybe someday a new front bumper.

I have a set of 75W Lazer Stars that I got cheap. They are tiny but put out a lof of light for their size, I'll put them on permanetly. Luckily my buddy I go out with most of the time has a set of PIAA 600 HID's. I just let him go first.

Bob, That is a great mod and a great write-up. I may be tempted to give that a Try.

Thanks All.

 

Rob, please shoot me a message if you're interested in selling them.

Ed

 

rob, would you be interested in swapping for my brand new 170s?

 

Sorry Guys, Not interested in selling them or swapping them right now. May consider selling them down the road.

I was just hoping someone had come up with a good mounting solution.
