| I t is really important to be seen when you are on the road. I’ve had few times when the car drivers vlearly haven’t noticed me despite I have a clearer bolt and wear a bright yellow Held airbag west. Some have drived straight from the side roads in front of me, some started to pass a car too close to me. There fore I wanted to have more lights to be used in day time. I ordered Denali Dual Led Lights a year ago from UK and payed them, too. The seller informed that he has posted the lights, but then pulled them back for a reason that I don’t know. I have managed to order stuff from UK several times. Now it’s not reasonable anymore due to the Brexit. I know you can order any stuff you can imagine from Aliexpress etc. I had Chinise crap led lights that were straight from hell. So to solve the problem between getting crappy/cheap or excellent/expensive lights i read some international tests and decided to order these Interpnone led day lights from Italy and recieved them in 48 hours from order to my front door. The lights seem to be very good quality and I was happy with the affordable price. More pics after my hubby has installed them. There will be loads of plastics to remove and more rain in the forecast - no shelter. The lights seem to be the same brand as my helmet phone system. |

| I really like the look of your new lights. Could you please ask your husband to post details of the installation process. Pictures would be great! Thanks. |

| I have similar lights fitted. They're not interphone ones though. Cheap copies from Ebay. Having said that, they've been on now for over 3 years and are on constantly while driving and they've been fine. Have a look on my photo album and you'll see how I have them fitted. |

They look great, terrier. I like where you have placed them. I've seen them fitted down the forks by the reflectors. I prefer your placement. Did your set come with some sort of mounting rack? Was it a challenging install? Thanks. |

My hubby has planned to install the lights the same way as you have done. They look great. |

| I've seen some have fitted them down on the fork legs but it means trailing the wiring down there and making it prone to damage. I made the bracket myself. It's a similar design to the one DennisB was making and selling years ago. Much neater and more compact and keeps the lights closer to the bodywork. I took the feed for the lights from the dipped beam feed and also through a separate on/off switch. I also use the same mounting bracket to fix my front dvr camera on the left side. Keeps all the wiring neat and and goes straight into the bodywork and is barely noticeable. |

| Which only goes to show I don't always read the previous posts before posting my own! The bit about other members fabricating a similar bar is, I think, new in this thread. |

| I also have the DennisB's mounting bracket, but I mounted my running lights under the bracket. |
