Mount passing light on front mudguard bracket

[dd14x]

Hello, has anyone mounted something like the item linked to below, onto their rocket 3?
I know Journeyman had managed to convince Clearwater lights to make a custom bracket for him, but I was not able to convince them - so looking for alternatives

This looks like it should fit - I just don't know what type of bolt is needed.

What size bolts did you use? And looks like it is bolted using one bolt - any issue with it rotating unintentional?

I believe you can order the fender bolts and lights as a kit. They fit perfectly and never rotated. They came with a spacer and bolt for the extra length. If I were to guess the size, M5. They are very bright and attract other driver’s attention which is why I chose these.

Don't know if you have a new or old Rocket, this is what i have on my '13.

The last picture shows the bolts on the rediator guard, they arr strong enough to support the brackets and lights, i had a set of lights installed there on one of my Rockets

Thank you. Mine is the new one, so this is not easily done. I ordered the part I mentioned in my earlier post - will share pics (if it works) later this week

The supplied bolts are 5mm short. Will need to order some bolts now - attached pic shows the new mount (and the light currently on the fork)
