I was wondering if anyone knew where to find A pillar brackets for light pods. I’m having trouble finding some that fit the recessed bolts on the ROPS bar. I have a front window and want to stay away from clamp style mounts. Here are the lights I am looking to mount up

I ordered these. A little pricey but they look like quality pieces. I’ll post a pic once they arrive and I get the lights mounted

Let us know if those work
I received the light brackets yesterday. Good news/ bad news. The good news is they will work on the Talon. The bad news is they are too close to the ROPS A-pillar to work if you have a windshield in place. I have the Honda OEM plastic window and plan to run the shorty in the summer. I can see two possible solutions to use them with a windshield. Option one and what I plan to try first is to grind the spot welds on the spacers on the brackets so that they can be flipped to the opposite side and move the light outside the window. This will allow the window to be removed. Option two is to cut the bracket and add an inch to make it stick out past the window. I'm spending way to much time and money on these stupid brackets but, I really want the A-pillar lights to complete my lighting. For being a popular mounting location I am surprised the options are so limited.

also, the brackets did not come with the laser-etched branding as advertised but I could care less about that part. They are pretty stout and a good product overall.

Update. The bolts included are bigger diameter so new bolts from the hardware are needed. And the spacer is about 1/8” to short. The plate also won’t allow the funky Honda window bracket to fit in the outer channel. I wasted 50 bucks on these so I’m going to cut and grind a little more to see if I can make them work.

I ended up cutting down the bracket, moving the spacer and flipping them outside the window. I wouldn’t recommend using this method, but I spent $50 on these brackets and was able to use them with some modifications. It’s the OEM windshield clips that make it a challenge.

They offer 2 types. This is the extended version to fit with the Honda OEM full windshield. Side note. The Rigid lights are more expensive than others in the same category but they are extremely bright and very satisfied with them. Made in USA
