Which Streamlights are gtg for replacing the tail cap and adding a pressure switch?

EYA: I think the Polytac would be a great cheap alternative for a weapon light... to be used with a pressure switch it would require replacing the tailcap with one of Surefire's. I remember reading where some guys had done this at some point but have failed to produce search results

If you get a Streamlight Polytac LED, you can fit a pressure switch tailcap designed for the SureFire 6P, Z2, G2/3, etc. series. The threads are the same. The Polytac LED is also a very good light for the money at 120 lumens.

I've got a TNVC drop in bulb in a Surefire G2L with a streamlight endap w/ streamlight pressure switch. Its pretty nice.

So you guys are telling me that Streamlight lights are compatible with Surefire switches and Surefire lights are compatible with Streamlight switches?   Damn son

If you're talking about the TLR-1/2(s) then there is a battery door option that will allow the connection of the 69132 tape switch (I have), and straight cord/coiled model which I think are 69134 and 35.  Works very well.  I have that setup on my AR pistol and it works ambi also as I have the light and pressure pad at 12 o'clock.

I do some part time work at a Law Enforcement supply store and we have both of those in stock.

I was thinking more towards a setup that would be cost effective. (trunk gun)
The Polytac would be great for this purpose ($38.99 retail), but I would just need to find a pressure switch that works.

I can't find one on Surefire's website. What company makes one? I saw one on Cheaper than Dirt but the reviews were horrible.

Any ideas?

Ideally, I would want a Polytac ($38ish) with a pressure switch kit ($???) and a decent 1" flashlight mount.

Thanks,

So we're saying that one of these will work on a streamlight polytac led?

Is Surefire's tailcap/pressure switch the best option?

Kinda hard to cough up $100 for a pressure switch/tailcap
