Reviews for Quadratec Flashlight Holder for 18-22 Jeep Wrangler JL Unlimited & Gladiator JT
Holds any flashlight with D batteries fine. Problem is that even when tightened down, one of the brackets has a tendency of flexing and almost popping off the rail when I push the flashlight into it. If they had made the brackets just a little larger around the rail, it would probably prevent that. No issues with seat movement at all.
Flashlight seems decent (time will tell on durability) and the clamps do hold the light securely.
Couple of nit picks. First, the clamps will need to mount in a position based on seat position. For example, I'm tall and sit all the way back, my wife is short and sits all the way forward, so the clamps will need to be mounted close together at the front of the track to allow the seat to slide. The clamps DO interfere with seat position if mounted far apart.
Second, why allen head bolts? Seems install would have been much easier if they were phillips, Everyone has a stubby phillips. The install video makes the space under the seat seem much larger than it is.
Compass on back one one of the two did not work. Install looks to be easy enough.
2 stars for innovation and utilization of unused space. I don’t recommend this item. I’m on my second one due to it breaking. The clips are too fragile and broke both times from just removing it. Thinking about it I probably only removed it from the mount less than 8 times. The flashlight doesn’t put out good light. While it’s bright it appears to have a purple tint to the light it puts out. Not very effective for seeing details. My Jeep is garaged and isn’t exposed to high temps throughout the year so the plastic shouldn’t have been effected.
Easy install, nice look, easy access
1st time I removed the flashlight and one of the brackets broke , no warranty, and only offered a 10% discount and no free shipping. Sorry folks, but going forward I will not purchase Quadratec products but rather pay a bit more for better warranty.
Installed the flashlight holder and pulled the light out three times (A Coast G450) and the one bracket broke on the third attempt on Day 2. The bracket still hold the light, but less securely. If you plan to use your flashlight regularly, I wouldn't recommend this bracket.
Snapped this onto my wife's Wrangler and thought it would be great. However, within two months, one of the two holding clips had snapped off and it became useless.
Great idea and concept. But the clips broke within 2 days of me having it installed and trying to put my flashlight back on it.
Already broke one of the tabs, nice product but wouldn't buy again.
Just not durable enough. I have purchased two of these and on both the clips holding the flashlight has broken. I use my flashlight on a regular basis, and it just doesn't hold up. For a previous JK I purchased that version and never had a problem.
