Default Harlan Question

Alright, I have my Harlan all wired up and working, but my question is, how do you guys mount your light on the inside of the A-pillar? Tape it to the modling?

depends on how you have it going through the vent hole

I've seen it done a couple different ways. First is replacing the vent w/ a rubber grommet. The gromment should provide enough "hold" on the light. Second is to actually use the vent piece w/ the vains cut out.

I just installed one this morning. I mounted the light in the side vent on the a pillar molding.

Just take the insert out, dremel out the vanes, slip the light in and put the insert back. Its a snug fit and it looks great.

Good Luck.

I've had mine in the center dash vent for a while but think I will move it to the A-pillar. Is it a clean looking install if you cut out the veins in the A-pillar defrost vent?

It's a very clean install. Looks like it belongs.
