I was having issues with my ILB visorMy modification I made to my ILB brackets to keep them from shifting down from underneath my visor brackets so my dad suggested I used the "lock" on a zip tie to help secure them...


I first got my brackets where I wanted them and drew a line so I had a reference mark to go from

Drew a reference line on my lightbar so I knew where to put my brackets back

Removed the brackets and drilled a 1/8" hole roughly 1/8" in from my reference mark

Ran some zip ties through the holes so that the "lock" was on the side that the visor mounting bracket was

Stuck the mounts back on the bar and put them underneath the visor mounts and viola solid as a rock and isn't going anywhere anytime soon
