installed Diode Dynamics ditch lights on my Mav Hybrid Lariat. only issue I had was the mounting to the hood mount and the hood mount light adapter is somewhat loose. not move on its own loose but with some pressure Im able to move the lights. I want it tight. I have reached out to DD to see if they have a solution. will post more once they respond.

Yea I meant the fender mount. DD did include a standard locking washer but it may be the issue would resolve with those washers you include with your kit. PMing you now with my info.

I always add some Blue Loctite to my threads to help with bolts walking or wiggling. The blue is strong enough to hold, but also weak enough to break by hand with a tool. If you want it permanent, red loctite is the way to go

Appreciate the input but I would prefer to not use loctite if there’s another solution, still waiting on DD to reply

Put mine on few weeks ago, and notice that they can be 'pushed' to tilt front or back, but stay otherwise. You could use that star lock style washer - but the paint might not like it... Interested in what you hear back.
