Ideas, Please

I just received my run/stop/turn light from Super Bright LEDs. I know to mount it to the bolt holes between the helmet locks on my RSV, I need spacers, to set it out enough to clear the trunk. I have seen where some of you that have this light bar have used what looks like white plastic bushings. I'm wondering what they are and where did you get them? Or what have others used?

i installed the r-mark light looks the same as yours but mine came with the white bushing a short pipe nipple or tubing would work to if you have any handy:Venture:

I bought a piece of aluminum bar 1" x 1/8 maybe, i'm not home to look at it right now. I bent it 90 degrees, drilled holes to match helmet holder holes and light bar hole so that it was sticking out where I wanted it. Did the same for the other side. I then filed it down, rounding the edges to make it a more custom fit, then polished the aluminum to make it all pretty.

I just mounted mine up under the trunk in the same place. Don't rememebr using any spacers. But its been there for about seven years now. I might better look to be sure its still there....

Ace hardware is your friend... white nylon spacers...

McMaster-Carr online has hundreds of spacers in all types of materials.

I had a piece of like 5/16 or 3/8 alum tubing from another project laying around. I got it from one of the local DIY stores. I think it came in like a 2 or 3 ft piece for say $6 or something. I measured how long I wanted it and used a tubing cutter for a nice clean cut. Filed edges and then polished it all up with some turtle wax chrome polish.

I picked up one of those Venture Line led wings for the RSV, and did you know that one of those little 9volt batteries will work to light them up for testing.... At least they did on mine.... A little easier than dragging out the big 12vdc.
