Is anyone aware of LED cube mounts for the A pillar that allows for dual cubes AND the ability to swivel the cubes to the side rather than only pointing forward?

Thanks!

Artec has dual mounts for the A pillar but they don't swivel. http://www.artecindustries.com/JL_Dual_LED_Apillar
They have a bunch more products listed in their build thread as well.
Yes, I saw that too. I really need (want) the ability to swivel the lights slightly to the side since I will also have a light bar on the front bumper. I’m sure someone will make one at some point.

Well...because I am looking for one that allows the lights to swivel and that is not one of them. Is that tough to understand?

If you can’t find what you are looking for, here is one idea. If the cube lights come with a mounting bracket, you can use two of them to make the top light swivel using Artec’s mount. Instead of mounting the light in Artec’s mount just install the bracket from the light flat side up. Install the second bracket on the light, flat side down. You may need to drill a hole in the center of the bracket to insert a 5/16 bolt. Place a nylon washer between the two brackets and secure with a nylon locking nut. By using a nylon lock nut you will be able to place tension on the pivot as needed.

This is one of those areas that manufacturers had years to come out for the JK, hopefully they will all speed the process up for the JL so we can have some options.

Hmmm. Interesting idea. I'm hoping some aftermarket brackets will come out soon that allow for this function that will look simple and clean.
