I was lucky to find a unity model H1 rooflight for a bargain. Could anybody advise as to the placement on the roof? Should it be in the middle or to the side? Note - its not the pillar mounted model. Any photos will help! Thanks!

Your absolutly correct Lorrie, any photos will help!
If the guys can see the flanges it might help to determine where it could be mounted.

Usually, you can put those things anywhere you want them. Whatever is most pleasing to your eye.

61lorrie. Are you talking about a spotlight? If so they were mounted at various places,on pickups and cars.Most of them were mounted on the A pillar.

Thanks for the info. I presume it is a matter of personal preference as it is an aftermarket item. However, my unity model is made specifically for the roof mount and will not fit in the a-pillar - the brackets are different. I will see where it will look better. Thanks again!
