Google came up short on this.. Can you give me more on the flash light mount? Is that an attachment to M.O.L.L.E. style points?? I have my MagLite attached to my SmityBilt tailgate organizer using a velcro strap.. not the best way to do it...

I would throw the Atenna X shorty replacement in as a really cheap mod as well.

I'm pretty sure he's referring to the clip that's on the flashlight itself and he just clips that to a MOLLE webbing.

Any military surplus should have a molle pouch that will work. He has a streamlight if I remember correctly. Which has potential to be smaller like a mini mag light.

Did the same thing right when I bought mine. Love it.

I did the garage door opener behind the plastic on the windshield arm also. Best mod yet. Haven't done really anything else yet though. No $ for mods
