Headlight Guard

Somewhere I saw a plastic headlight guard that looked like it was held on by screws standing it off of the glass lens by about an inch. Not the kind that is held on with velcro. Can someone direct me to that vendor. Also, for those that have tried the various protectors what are the plus and minus's.

I think the ones with screw are GS ones, adn the Rockster doesn't have quite the same headlight shroud as the Gs, so they won't fit.

That said - if anyone Does have one - I'd be very keen to see it too!!

This is my solution. I made this mod to the Headlight in 2006 and have since done about 12000 miles without any issues like vibration or cracking. Even took a low flying pheasant hit recently without hassle. I much prefer the look of this on the Rockster to that perspex thingy.
