In this video, I go against popular opinion (and the terrible reviews) of installing ditch lights on my FJ Cruiser using a mounting bracket from Amazon.

If I did it again, I would consider bending one of the clip tabs on the window shield hood trim, and see if that gives me the half inch of clearance. Then, hopefully, the cowl would be pretty secure missing one of the four clips and the bracket holding it down…we’ll see, thanks for the comment!

Colby, I keep all/most of the packing foam I aquire,(🤪I know, need help 🤪). I have a few dense black pieces that could be cut to fit & glued up to wedge into the gaps between the cowl & lights to fill & cushion, alternately I've also cut those dark grey/ black anti-fatigue mats to cushion & gap fill on my FJ (I used the mat edge trim pieces on my snorkel 'cuz I didn't want to drill into the "A" pillar, I just use silicone adhesive to attach) D "(rev. 3:11" on forum)

This is a good idea. I tend to hoard random things as well! Do you like your snorkel?
