I am working on a 12v converter for a headlight, tail light and signals. What kind of mounting bracket should I look for the front post threads? Photo

Also, how are you guys mounting your tail light and signals?

Have you upgraded the controller?   If so it may cause problems and has been known to burn up controllers.

If not contacted RAD about the upgrade.  It might not be compatible.

I have an upgraded controller and a 12v converter. I just don't know how to attach the new lights.

I highly recommend you contact where you purchased the controller from.  They may advise you not to upgrade your lights.

As your picture shows. The front mounting bracket I'd a good place to mount your headlight. Amazon has a lot of headlight brackets.

From the pictures it is cool looking headlight but it looked like is an insert. I think it was meant to replace the original headlights. Unfortunately it did not show the energy ratings. Also the warning "Frequently Returned Item" is a big flag that maybe it lack product information or instructions?

Not to discourage you. In the early stage of me owning an ebike. I was thinking of modding my headlights. But I abandoned the idea when I read about the others having electrical problems with their controllers.

I do not ride much at night so I have resigned myself into using a flashlight strapped to the handlebar. It is a lot brighter than stock headlights. https://a.co/d/6cIcq8J
Literally is LITERALLY the most annoying word of the decade.
