Whats the outside diameter and length of the step down bit?
Might talk to a friend about turning a couple of standard ones down.

Someone took me up on the brace but not the Tie-rods.
The length of the step is about 5mm the Dia I cant measure but should be the same as any spacer washers or the piece that slides into the steering rack.

An update: Fully removed the existing headlights and stripped them down. Hopefully in the near future I can say that they are in and running and out for a test drive

Well, NZHondas NIMM was a great success. Murdered my clutch before the drive back from Taupo to Auckland. Today my Clutch slave and MC rebuild kit turned up. Praying thats all thats wrong so I can just rebuild it rather than having to replace the clutch at this stage. Pics to come.
