Does Anybody Here Use Flashlight Mounts In Their Vehicle?

As posted above, I am just wondering if anybody here uses any sort of mount in their vehicle to hold their flashlight and keep it from moving around? I have used flashlights that charge in a cradle, like Streamlight, Inova, and Pelican. However, I have now grown fond of lights that don't need a cradle to charge, thus the reason for the question.

I keep my car light inserted tail first into a RED traffic diffuser wand.

They are carried in a vinyl bag that is attached to my ashtray.

Yes I do. I have a walking stick with a Fenix bike mount and a Solarforce light. Works great also hands free light. Just lean the stick against something and adjust the light. I should have added, the walking stick is always in my truck. Change a tire, lean it against the fender. Hook up trailer? Lean against trailer, when the stick knocks down, you know you are close. lol

Same mount on my golf cart and a bike. Both "vehicles" to me.

Other mounts I use. McGizmo tripod clip mount and Spy 007 micro rail. So I guess I use a variety of mounting options.

I just keep one in the glove box of each car, but a mount would certainly make things handy. However, I usually have at least one on my person too so I most often just use that light over the one in the car anyway since the car lights use primaries and I'd rather use the rechargeable batteries in my EDC instead.

In my Tacoma I have the Maglite D cell clip mounts on my transmission hump.
In my Camry I just put the lights between the passenger seat and console.
