Fitted the dynamo light yesterday, but wasn't very happy with the mounting bracket that came with the rack from BLB, so spent my lunch break messing around in the workshop and came up with this. Straightened out the original bracket, chopped it down, and (badly) drilled new holes in. It's a lot sturdier now and less dorky looking I reckon, but I didn't really plan it out very well so it now sticks out above the level of the rack, which will be annoying for carrying any large boxes etc. Should be good for now though, and I'll have another go when I find some suitable material and have another lunch break to waste.
I'll also do something smarter with the cable this weekend so please avert your eyes for now
