Lights on a front runner - Brackets

I am going to mount som lights on the Front Runner rack.

I want to get the lights below the rack as I carry a canadian style canoe, plus timber and other stuff.

How have people mounted lights ? what do the OEM brackets look like ?

I think I have to make some if I want to get the lights under the rack so an idea what FR make would help.

I think AndrewS has lights hanging low off his rack, maybe a quick PM to him might help

Glen,

they are these ones I think - they maybe slightly different to mine and I beleive they have been updated to reduce the moisture problem

http://aa.bosch.de/aa/en/static/produkte/l...act100.htm

The light are really good, but IMO let down by the moisture ingress. If this has now been fixed then I would strongly recomend them

I might have some light brackets that would do the trick - Not sure if they were on a Patriot or Front Runner rack (got them from BobbyCrispBox).

For a suitable collection of cider vouchers I could be persuaded to part with them. Obviously they have huge sentimental value AND historical interest, which will need to be reflected in the amount of cider on offer Whistle
 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
