I did not get it HERE but this site is less than what I paid. I also bought the chrome bezel.

Just to let you know my procedure:
  1. Remove tail turn signal housing.
  2. Remove rear reflector, held by a nut from the inside of housing.
  3. Cut a 1/8"x1.5" alum bar down to fit snug into the reflector recess.
  4. Drill holes diagonally 3/4" around the center of the alum. bar for SS 8-32X1/2" phillips head machine screw.
  5. Countersink holes in alum bar and tap 8-32 holes in the housing.
  6. Install screws.
  7. Drill 1/2" hole, from the back side of housing, through the alum. bar & deburr or install a grommet.
  8. Mark holes for bezel mount on alum bar.
  9. Drill and tap marked holes for SS 8-32X3/4" SHCS. If the screws are a bit too long then grind them flush on the back side of alum. bar.

8-32X3/4" SHCS


Hope this helps. It will be interesting to see if I get pulled over for this light. It has several program modes for strobe and one for solid.
