The second section will be the piece represented by the PVC in the picture and if fitting gets a little tricky, i can cut this into a third section but i'm hoping i don't have to.
    Make two up I'll have one and a pair of your tail lights they look the goods.

    If you're doing a rear mount fuel tank, then this idea is even easier to achieve. My tank is stuck in the factory location further forward, as i'm dropping in a recessed boot down the back to take my spare wheel etc.
