6" sections of 68mm standard plastic rainwater downpipe - just the right size for my Lucas 488 flat lens lights when you have a layer of fibreglass and filler on it! Rough up the surface well and then hold them in place with some hot-melt glue gun and then use bonding paste and fibreglass to secure them behind and in front. Finish off with body filler to the shape/style you want.
The number plate light was done by covering the light in packing tape and then holding it at the right angle with gaffer tape down the sides. Fill from the top with body filler to make the wedge shape. Remove the light when it is all set (the tape stops the body filler from sticking to it) and then tidy up accordingly.
Still lots of work to go, but getting there!
