    New 2020 Tundra Platinum CM member coming over from Tacoma world with my first contribution:

    I really like Baja Designs lights and have squadron pros, 30” ONX6+ in the front bumper and S2 pros in the rear bumper but I wanted something that would provide light for camping, changing a tire, and lots of light for working at night when securing things on my trailer. Enter the BD S1 lights. I needed lights up high to provide coverage but don’t have a roof rack. I also wanted “flexible” lighting and had the idea to use a flexible arm like you would use with a microphone. So, I searched and found a company called “snakeclamp” and ordered a 24” heavy duty arm with hardware. Rounded up a few parts and wired it up to my switch pros. Posted below are my pics. I need to tidy up the wiring around the base as well as have a clamp on the side when it’s stored horizontally.
    Hope it helps someone. If anyone would like links to parts or has any questions let’s me know.

    I finally got the other side done and the wiring cleaned up. Took a few more pics in case anyone wanted to see the final product
