Anne,

I used one of those dreamy shiny stainless steel clamps with the rubber
inserts, maybe they're designed to mount racks to forks or seat stays, but
I used one around an LED flashlight, and secured it to my WALD basket with
a single bolt and nut and a washer. I bet you could do the very same thing,
securing to one of the side flanges that are pre-threaded. It works GREAT
and is easy to turn on or off. I use a small single-battery (CR123) light
from FourSevens.

I think the clamps are called "P" clamps at the dreaded velo-orange, but
RBW sells 'em, and includes them with rack kits. Here you go, they call
them NItto Band Clamps:
