Abstract

A method and apparatus for an adaptable vehicle light mount is provided. A recess created within an interior of a heat sink fin array of the vehicle light allows associated mounting hardware to be embedded within the recess. A physical offset between the vehicle light and the associated vehicle may therefore be minimized to provide a shallower mounting profile. A tube may be incorporated into the recess so as to allow one or more vehicle lights to be mounted to a single mount point on a vehicle where the tube and associated mounting hardware are incorporated and function as part of the heat reducing components of the vehicle light.
