Suggestions for a DTRL or small side lamp please.

I have a none standard front headlamp & bowl - wasn't fussed that it had no integral sidelamp as I planned to fit some sort of LED low whattage daytime running light.

I've retro fitted quite a few on cars but I have no idea who makes them for bikes I guess there is a custom market place somewhere.

I was thinking it could be mounted somewhere under the heaadlamp - lots of room methinks.

Have a look at Paul Goffs emporium: http://www.norbsa02.freeuk.com/index.htm, I've used stuff from him on a couple of my bikes and my experience was fine.

Which size headlight are you using ? as these give a neat solution

 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/401576782136 if yours is now 7 inch diameter  (obviously the original isn't) but still look quite traditional in lens form.

I'll have to measure up but tbh I'm no fan of angel eyes - too much like a fairy light for my liking.
You have got me thinking though as I have a Polycarbonate  LED headlamp in my loft might be worth me checking if it has a basic sidelamp.

Nearest I've found so far on flea-bay are these -  first one is not too wide (3.42") it would fit between the forks under the headlamp. I've asked if they sell them individually and what the power consumption is so waiting for an answer on both options - I'll look into my loft in the morning to see if the LED unit fits my bowl - I've an idea its a strange fitting.

Ted I have an originl lens and ring if you want it, it has the side light hole in it so you'll have to find teh holder if its not with it. If it fits your shell mind.

Yours for postage if you want it mate ;)
