First remove the original MS mount from the bottom of your light
There is a small screw that you remove and the mount comes right off
There may be a small rubber grommet under the Stock MS mount
You can snip this grommet off the power cord, it is not needed. |
You will be replacing the stock mount with these parts |

Bend the power cord to the right or left side, your choice.
Push the adapter up against the MS light body.
The wire lays in the half round channel in the adapter
Screw in the supplied screw. |
See the image on the left
The Marwi slide mount comes with a Marwi Helmet or New style Handlebar mount.
So you will have to order a Helmet or Handlebar mount
You will also have to order The Marwi Mount kit
The Marwi mount kit is a Nylon bolt, 2 nylon nuts and 2 lock washers. |
Hold the Marwi slide mount up to the MS adapter so the big holes line up
Slide in the 1/4-20 threaded Nylon bolt on the side that has the washer recess area
Slide a lock washer into the recessed area and push the bolt all the way through to the other side.
Put the other lock washer on the outside of the slide mount
Screw on the two nylon nuts |

Original Magic Shine light to Marwi mount adapter
Original style where you have to unsolder and re-solder the power wire
This model is no longer for sale |

On the left, you can see the adapter attached to the bottom of the Magic Shine light.
It allows you to mount a Magic Shine bike light to a Marwi helmet or handlebar mount.
The Marwi mount shown above slides onto the helmet or handlebar mounts.
The adapter has a relief cut into it for a internal toothed lock washer.
The large Marwi mounting bolt and nuts shown above are made of Nylon.
I stock the Marwi mounts and Nylon pieces and lock washer on my web store.
Above right: Notice that I have cut a groove so that the power cord can come out and exit to either side through a groove.
In order to install this adapter on a Magic Shine light, you must disassemble the light.
The power cord must be unsoldered from the circuit board.
You push the power cord through the hole in the adapter and then into the inside of the light body.
Then you resolder the power cord to the circuit board.
The photo on the left above shows a recessed cap screw but I am using a button head screw like the one shown below.
The screw below has a low profile head and will clamp the adapter down way better than a cap screw
