Happy New Year everyone

My mate has a K100RS 16v and wants to find a set of mirror mounts for his driving lights.

I read somewhere that they are available in the States, but I can not remember where I saw them. Does anyone know where we can order some?

Thanks

Gold Coast = Struggle Town?? Yeah right!

I bought some Hella 50 driving lights that were going cheap at ARB last month so am going to make some mirror mounts. Looking at the photos on this web site they don't look hard to fashion from sheet aluminium (aluminum for the seps) or gal then have them powder coated.

Its on the list!

edit: Interesting reading- http://www.worldwidewords.org/articles/aluminium.htm

G'day Derek

Struggletown is Queanbeyan (if you couldn't afford to live in Canberra then you went to Queanbeyan aka Struggletown) where I used to live and the group used that name as a badge of pride.

nice bunch of blokes and girls, in fact 3 of the group are now my best mates.

Ah, yes I have heard the term come to think of it! Drove through there on the 1400km trek to the snow last winter with the kids. Shocked Shocked

Search...I think it is "the shop whore gets naked" and you will find some mirror mounts that can be duplicated. I also think the piaa hid's thread has a similar mount.

I have some fork mounted lights, and I got the mounts from "Lamp one"

Try this one: http://k11og.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5777

Shogs may still have the CAD available, you could PM her, although I haven't seen her on here in awhile, not sure if she's checking for PM's.
