Toyota Tacoma KC Cyclone V2 under hood light mounts

prusaprinters

<p>This thing is an adapter to mount Cyclone V2 lights up under the front lip of your hood. &nbsp;They aim the lights slightly to the rear to help with glare and to better illuminate the engine. &nbsp;Use the printed mount to mark and drill two 1/8" holes in the under hood sheet metal, being careful not to go up into the exterior sheet metal. &nbsp;Then use two #10 ¾" sheet metal screws… I used stainless steel… to attach the mount to the hood. &nbsp;Then another #10 ¾" sheet metal screw to attach the light to the mount. &nbsp;I needed a washer for that since the hole in the light is large. &nbsp;No washers needed to attach the mount to the hood, the screws just go into the recessed pockets. Install the mounts with the narrow side up and notch to the rear. &nbsp;Wire up as directed… I needed to extend the wires to reach the lights in this non-standard location.</p><p>I used the supplied toggle switch on the + side of the harness but did not connect the - side directly to ground. &nbsp;Instead, I teed that into my remote start pin switch so that the lights can operate automatically if I want. &nbsp;If you do this install a diode in the wire back to the remote start control box.</p><p>Print with the smaller side down and you won't need supports. &nbsp;Not on end but the smaller of the 2 large sides. You'll understand when you see the recessed pockets for the screws. Use PETG or some other tough non-PLA.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
