I would imagine that they would be easy to break off if you are loading or unloading anything big into the van. I prefer to use a standard truck dome lamp mounted in the rear load area as they are flush with the roof and have a cleaner look. http://oi60.tinypic.com/1z4gvaf.jpg | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | I'd mount one of those originals on a door so it aimed toward the sill when the door was open or mount it on the 'rail' at the top of a side, less easy to knock around either place

I am shutting down this post. Some posts have been edited or deleted, so that the useful portions of this thread are available to future viewers. If this bothers you, either go elsewhere or complain to the owners of The Forums.
I do not think that either poster with parts intended to use this forum/thread to sell parts. Other members have other opinions on motivations - these opinions are not pertinent to this thread.
Posting information about parts (part numbers and photos) is beneficial to all of us (now and in the future).
Brad, thank you for showing us an interesting, odd, and uncommon part.
