Aux Lighting - Cardiff Ten Owner

Evening gents

I see another Ten rider now and again in Cardiff and he's a regular on here too, I cant find his username for trying. Anyway if your out there mate, I saw you today and I was well impressed with the Aux Lights you had on the front and I'm sure you said you got them in Halfords too, can you give me some info please on fitting them and which lights you actually bought?

I'm fed up of people pulling out in front of me and also getting ready for winter although hopefully it wont be as bad as last years!

I'm not the guy you're looking for, but there's a ton of info on aux lights in this thread, maybe you'll find the answers in there.

Thanks Pete, I'll check that out. Is there much involved in fitting these?

if you know nothing, with the right kit, custome made - piece of cake.

If you know a bit about electrics, and with the right brackets - easy

GULG

Made some brackets for the ten which come out just below the head light and then you can attach some aux lights from halfords. PM him and see if he can make any more???

it was me you seen,

these are the lights i've got fitted http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/s...egoryId_165688.
i've got them fiited to my crash bars, so fitting was easy.
not sure where you can fit them, if you got no bars.

since i fitted them, car drivers think twice before pulling out on me.

just got to sort out the rear of the bike with extra lights,
then maybe cars will stop parking inches from the back of the bike at the traffic lights.

Keep an eye on the mounting brackets on the lights they are very thin, mine snapped on the Ten .
