Betts spotlights on an M109A3 - location?

[Spook556]

I have a pair of older Betts spotlights, on arms - this is the current version, LED:



The arm is similar, and it stands out about 10 inches total from the base. What is the consensus on where on the truck to mount them? I was looking at mounting them as cowl lights, just forward of the doors - but the passenger side mount would conflict with the exhaust, and I don't really want to do that. I could mount them on the front of the van box and turn them forward, but that cuts down on their usefulness. I suppose I could put them on the side of the cab top behind the doors, but the left side is a problem again - it would just light up the back of the exhaust stack!

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

You're pretty limited to the mounting locations with the design, flat sufaces only. You could fab up a bracket and expand your mounting choices, such as on the mirror supports.

Cab roof or fenders?
