Yes I know , found mine at the first of the month and jumped on it, google them and see because I think JP Cycles sells them for $69 but they are not LED, but a trip to Radio Shack can fix that

I got some fr. http://www.bruisersinc.com/Merchant2...y_Code=LICENSE

They have a bolt attached so I just put some washers on, couple nuts and some plastic tubing plus some silicone to hold them in.
