I scour eBay and places like that with an almost religious fervour to find things that no one else has or for something different , sometimes you come across an absolute Gem of an idea for not a lot of money .

Barwel, as you know I bought one of these good looking "MT-03" headlights and without brackets it costs about GBP 84.00 from Germany.
Total amount to UK will be about GBP 100.00 - just ask (don't worry - he speaks english) the seller of this one

not sure about that light badger im looking for something smaller but the only options i like at the moment are the dominator's and the mt-03 head light hmm

and KuKu if i got it i dont know how i would mount it, thats what put me off just getting the head light and not the LSL kit :/

Buy some Aluminium plate about 5mm thick and cut your own brackets out of that .

the mt light is not as simple as that, there are 4 mount points 2 are threaded and the other two use like a push in system to hold it sturdy and the holes have strange off sets as the light tapers in at the bottom i will look in to it more but its more of challenge than i can be bothered with (i want to ride my bike its driving me mad not having transport)

but i will have anther look at it and see what i come up with

I think that the bottom mounting points will need some spacers between headlight and bracket, but all other parts are shown just well in the picture above and it's not that difficult to make them
