Finally mounted my mag lite flashlight in the front of my jeep. Credit doesn't go to me for location/idea, there was another poster who did this first and inspired me.

I've seen a few of them around. What is it that you used to hold it? I would like to mount one in my glove compartment. (Its a big mess in there)

My question is how solid is the whole mount? Will the clips break after multiple uses? How bad does the center console bend out everytime when you yank it out?

I had my cb mounted in the same spot. It weighs just as much if not more than the big mag lite. My console didn't move a hair. That plastic is pretty durable.

Holds up really well, and those clips are pretty damn durable too. From Mag-Lite's website, my flashlight wasn't even a maglite, just a reg D cell flash, and it fit perfect still.

Looks nice, but now you're giving some ******* a reason to break in and steal it.
