Rear light conversion (fao Buck)

Having just got my rear LED light from OTR, I have been checking Bucks thread...

http://www.xt660.com/showthread.php?t=320

...on how to do the conversion & I have a question. After cutting the original light unit off, did you stick the led light on with silicone, or did you shorten the thread and attach it to the metal plate with bolts? The threads on the led are quite long.

I also want to keep the indicator/number plate holder in place, will I be able to do so after cutting?

cheers

I'd love to ride mine thru winter aswell(especially as I've only had the carbon cans fitted for 2/3 weeks) but the traffic here is bad enough without all the rain, mud and other crap on the roads that winter brings along.

Just today when I was taking the bike from my house to my parents garage I high sided on a patch of mud from a nearby construction site and almost kissed tarmac!! My wife was following in the car and she shat herself. I was going pretty fast and I was right out of the seat :sad6: so needless to say, I bricked it also!!
