Cowl lights!

[DanJT]

Another B.E.A.utifulday, another project. Had these Nilights and thought Hmm.
They would make great side Cowl lights. I used my heat gun to form the cowl to the light, not perfect but
acceptable!. Some nay sayers doubt my extraordinary amateur talent so here are some pics.

Nice job

Thanks, there are companies that sell the preformed cowls with lights for $399-$599.
My whole project was a total of roughly $38 bucks and some time.

Actually really like that idea. Been back and forth on the VSL lights but can't justify 600$ for it. I know even DD makes a small bright flush mount. What light did you go with?

I had a set of Nilights that I used, they are 1 5/8 deep and I had to force them in. there are
several lights that are much thinner that if doing it again I would use them.
Overall I'm happy with these.

Ok yea i was wondering on depth. Figured anything larger like a DD would prob have to trim the pinch weld behind it

You can use these with plenty of room and more led's.

I can't believe I didn't see this thread before. Love the DIY. I just modified my snorkel to make room for light bar brackets and a KC light bar. If THEY don't make it, we'll do it for 'em!

I recently added cowl covers which I cut out for the lights, I think it looks better. There are photos in another thread.
