Driving Lights Behind windshield

[drew02a]

You know how the undercover cop cars have their lights mounted behind the windshield.

I was thinking it would be pretty sweet if you could mount some offroad lights in a similar fashion. Only problems I can think of is heat and glare. Maybe some LED lights would work since they don't get as hot. Just not sure if they would be bright enough.

Yeah I would think the glare would be pretty bad unless you had a spot beam light that focused all the light in one area.
But that would be pretty sweet to have (and to blind douchecanoes that are driving shitty at night )

I think the glare could be manageable if you kept the windshield clean. And, the steeper angle of the windshield of the 4runner would probably be better than the Taco.

yeah true, I was thinking about the tacoma and not the 4runner. Also, you could do like every other 4runner owner and mount your lights on top of the roof rack that your going to end up buying for it

You also gotta get a rooftop tent, a bike rack, and a fridge for sushi

yep, he's right. You don't want to be an "expo-poser".

You could always just build one.

Yeah, but I own a 4runner, not an FJ cruiser... so the Sushi is out.

I believe those police lights have a cup/shade of sorts that does not let light into the inside of the car.

The red necks around here used to mount lights on the inside like that, they used red or purple....
