I have the Unity cop spot, but not installed. Some years ago I bought the Driverside A Pillar bracket for mounting from Unity. Good American company.

You can try. I think I got my bracket, maybe 10 years ago -- I had a different computer and ISP then, so I don't have any emails to link to now. I may still have the paper invoice [yes, I'm that old], and if I can find it I'll pass on any relevant part and/or phone numbers etc.
Pretty sure they're still selling cop lights to LEOs. Now the big thing is LED spots.
Hope they're not made in China.

Here is my 71 with an old Unity that has been on it probably since it was new!

Wow Crew, That rules.
That is a [factory or high-end dealer option?] rare Cowl Mount.
I don't know if Unity still carries those. I think that configuration may be more secure in a roll-over than a truck with an A Pillar perforated in the middle by the spotlight, grip and radial cross shaft. Not that I'd want to see that stunt.
[Reminds me to get the roll bar back in the Jimmy...Before I drill a 1/2 " hole in the drivers side doorpost...]
