Light or no light? Curved or flat? You can go cheap on just a mount with no light or drop a couple hundred on a billet with a light.

Looks like Dennis Kirk has a crap load of them. They start at $655 and go down from there.

I made my own, mounted on the swing arm, and it has a light. Cost me about $10 for the frame, and light.

Got mine on ebay as well..nothing fancy..no light. Bolts right on to the axle, think I paid like $40..maybe less. Bunch of people make them. curved, straight, horizontal, vertical. Kurkakyn makes one the bolts onto the swing arm for $125 (or so).

i made mine as well, out of an angle bracket you use to hold up shelves, then i cut a piece of alum to fit in back of the plate... powder coated it all black... perfect, for the holes in my fender, i used dice i threaded to fit in the two above the light, the other i used body pannel push pins from auto zone or any auto location
