Rear Lights on Load Worrior?

Ok, i'm sure this has been discussed, but I did a search and found out how to wire them up, but couldn't find out the best way to mount them to a load worrior. I know how to mount the forward facing lights, they have some overpriced bracket you can get, but what about the rear? I'm not really into spending too much money on this mod as the lights are going to be AutoZone $20 units. I'd rather spend more on the front facing driving lights later.

Thanks guys!

Austin, if you don't wanna spend the $30 for the Yakima light brackets like I have in the front, the Yakima Snap Arounds will work.

I had them linked from REI's site on my pages, but REI has updated their page, so my link is no good anymore.
Man I hate that
Lots of broken links on my site from other sites updating all the time.

I had test fitted my Hella 500s on them a few years back a day or so before my Yakima light brackets came in.
Here's a pic of them.

Hummmm... Looks like a good alternative Corey!
Do you remember what they were called so I can do a search for them on REI? Hum... Do you think I should go with four since the lights will be horizontal and probably have two mounting holes per bracket, or will one do? I guess I could just make my own hole in the center of the bracket if they only come with the two outer ones.

The Yakima snaps are called
Snap Arounds.

I'll have to update my URL later on, then maybe not, as REI will probably change the URL again in a few weeks or so.

Where you see the hole in the middle is where you would run the lights mounting stud through.
Tighten it up, and the Snap Around gets tighter also.

If the lights stud is to fat, you may have to buy some new bolts.
Most lights only have one mounting stud on them.

PS, looks like I had the correct URL all the time on my site, as the same page comes up when you click the link from the above link, telling you it's out of stock.
Any good bike shop should carry these as well as any place that carries Yakima gear.
