Operation: Operator controls rotation and
elevation of spotlight outside of vehicle by twisting and turning a handle on
the inside of the vehicle. Operator remains protected from the elements and can
position the beam quickly and easily. The beam remains where the operator places
it until the handle is moved.

Mounting options include (depends on year, make and model
of vehicle, see product description for specific mounting location):
Post mount spotlights are the most common installation
options, with the mounting going through the A-pillar running alongside the
windshield. The A-pillar is the metal frame on the side of the windshield.
Inside post mount spotlights are common in late model
vehicles, but the installation requires more time as one must drill through the
A-pillar and cut a small notch in the forward window support of the door. Both
inside post mount lights and post mount lights are mounted in the A-pillar. The
difference is the angle of the light.
Door mount lights are mounted in the door. The door mount
spotlight is an easy installation but the spotlight will move with the door when
the door is opened and closed. While this isn’t suitable for most police patrol
cars, most other operators find the door mount acceptable. In many cases, a
particular make and model vehicle will not have a post mount spotlight option
because the A-pillar is too small, but usually these vehicles have a door mount
and a inside post mount option. Please click on the link below to see pictures
of the different mounting positions.
