A night vision system including a thermal radiation night vision device for removably mounting to an exterior of a vehicle. The night vision device is to detect thermal radiation for objects present around the vehicle and to create a video with the detected objects. The created video may be communicated to a display device located within an interior region of the vehicle for displaying the video stream to a user driving the vehicle. The system may include a connector having a standard interface to easily and securely connect to a mounting device that is designed to mount to a roof, a light bar, a fender, a grill or a bumper of the vehicle. The mounting device may be configured to replace a portion of a frame of a spotlight mounted to the vehicle in order to secure the thermal radiation night vision device to the spotlight.
