Hi John:
       My lights are buried in the back 40, so send me a pic of the
       light you are asking about, and I will comment.  Last time I
       checked, it wasn't a big deal to make a bracket for it.

Randy,

Thanks for chiming in here. Your Hella mod looks really stable and
durable. I'm head scratching here trying to come up with the same
result with the 200x142mm Cibies. There are two posts on the
horizontal axis to attach a frame to. I just can't see any way to
avoid up and down vibration.  Any thoughts on this?
thanks,
