2320 Work lights

Spud:

I have the same issue on my 2305. I usually turn out the lights so they don't bother me. I might someday try mounting them 90 degrees off so the oval goes up and down instead
of side to side.

One JD dealer told me several folks had cut the bottom of the black part of 2 liter bottles to just fit over the inner part. I guess it fits pretty well. I'm not sure how they fastened it.

It is very annoying. When I had my 3320 I had the lights mounted at the front of the Canopy and that was great. No glare. I do have a canopy on my 2305 but it's more flexible than the one I had on my 3320 and I don't really have a good way to mount them up front. (Unless I extend the metal bracket or something)..

You could also tape and spray paint (black)any areas that shine down on you. Without seeing it, its hard to give suggestions. Mine are fine, but the cab blocks them....

My lights are mounted in the factory recommended loacations, just like in the pictures in 2Malamuntes from 03-09-2008, 07:14 PM. I need to come up with something to block some of the light coming from them since they are just behind me on the top of teh bush gaurds on the signal lights mounted ont eh outside of the ROPS. I have no cab or canopy just like the pics on 2Malamutes pictures.

How about sitting on a phone book?:D I'm 6'-2" and don't have any problem with the lights in my eyes when I look behind me. Seriously though, some people turn the brush guards upside down and then the lights can hang from below them.

I took a pair of unused trailer license plates (in Vermont, they're about 4"x6", aluminum and light weight) and a set of long plastic zip ties. By slipping the aluminum license plate (with a band of electrical tape, to keep from vibrating/rusting) between the lamp and the roll bar, I've created a shield that protects my eyesight, while still proving full forward illumination. The square roll bar makes easy to leverage the plate against a flat surface and allows the zip tie to tighten it in place. Simple and works great.

If you hit your mouse on the picture above, you can zoom in to see the set-up better. Note the license plate had holes on the edge, which made it easy to zip tie - and, by putting the shiny side toward the light, it reflects the illumination. The color of the license plate is mere coincidence...
