Tinted Mags

[AParrette]

so i traded my old blue 4d mag for a black one
and got a silver at the same time

the black is a 4d mag with the mag led light in it, i like it alot, but could always be brighter

my 2nd is a silver 4d that is just plain stock

i have sent the original lens caps to my trucks painted to be tinted black. don't worry i saved a clear one form my blue one

but since i do show the truck and have the maglite holders mounted up (well, in a few days) i though a mag lite twin that matches my truck perfectly would be nice.

i have almost every light tinted on the truck, everything that can be led is, and the headlights is a 9007 i xenon 5000k hid kit and the fogs is a 9005 5000k kit, which is currently getting worked on.

oh and my 3rd is an advanced led light and i love it to death.

i figured i'd get the post rolling since i need the 2 posts verified by a mod
naturally i'll get pics of everything concerning the mags. maybe even the truck if you guys want since i made it a super flashlight

Welcome to CPF, AParette.

I'm moving your thread to the General Flashlight Discussion forum.

Check here for Maglite drop-ins and mods. Could be a good place for you to start.

If I understand you right, you aren't using the black Mag necessarily to illuminate things, but more as a nice looking accessory for your truck, right?

Have you considered swapping the heads and tailcaps on the two Mags? The black light with a silver tailcap, black body, silver head and black bezel, will look surprisingly classy. I have a 3D set up like that in one of my trucks (with a Malkoff drop-in), mounted on the driver's side seat frame and it looks pretty cool. My truck isn't a show truck by any means, but I do like it to look nice. Give it a try, the worst that can happen, is you not liking it and you simply swap them back. I'd post some pics, but my brother has my camera (again), so I can't take any pics.

BTW, what kind of truck is it? Any pics?

:welcome:

it's an 03 dodge ram 1500 laramie

and i love my hid's !!

have to replace the bulbs for the fogs, so i just ordered a new kit since i don't like the slim ballasts

i'm currently looking at these for the mag

but as far as a drop in i found this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=200347102805

if you guys and gals would be so kind to explain how hard an install the led's would be. and how bright it is?


i'll get pics of the mags and the mounting spot in the truck.

Cool truck! :twothumbs

Personally, I'd go for a Malkoff Device...as for the strike bezel and tailcap, just look on that same site.

Can't go wrong with a Malkoff!!! :rock::rock::rock:
