How did you put flags on your cart?

Duscarter · 10-13-2011, 01:18 PM

I want to attach a couple of the flags that are made for car windows to my cart. If you have a flag or flags, how did you mount them?

Cut the window clip part off at the end of the "pole" that it's on and use 2 zip ties for each flag, mounted to the rear roof support or rear most part of your back seat frame...or anywhere else you might want to put them.

Like Scooter said, zip ties or get some hose clamps, that would work also.

That's the best method. Side note, the flags will flap FORWARD when the windshield is upright. Drives my wife crazy! (that's why I haven't changed it, LOL!)

Thanks for the responses. I didn't think zip ties would hold them good enough. Guess I will give it a try.

I use a "Springy Thingy" with a 6 foot 5/16" fiberglass pole in it to fly a Florescent Orange flag when I'm playing in traffic.

Usually it is mounted with a bolt through one of the holes in the bagwell, but when I drive on the hilly back-roads I mount it on the bar that holds the strap for the bags. I had to bore out the hole and used a bolt that fits the bottom of the Springy Thingy, but that puts the flag about 2 feet higher in the air.

Can I get a photo of the mount setup in the photo? That's a great idea!
