Maybe fabricate a bar that attaches behind the wind fairing then around in front.

Or attach it to that crossbar pictured.
Or get four slim lights attached to that first bar.

Don't be jelous cause I'm gonna be rocken a sweet roof basket soon :ROTFL: :goink:

And the main problem with putting lights in that cross bar is I need em to sit low so I can still use the kayak rack so prolly gonna end up haven to fab up a light bar that sits flush with the bottom of the basket

I have a Load Warrior with the extension. So far I have the fairing and one shovel/axe mount on it.
