If you have ocean revives and want a rail system this is a pretty cheap one ($22) I made today.
I got a 10 ft peice of narrow unistrut from my local electrical store, a flat peice of aluminum (size on the receipt), and some nuts and bolts (size on the bag). I took the unistrut and cut it in half, drilled the ends and middle of each piece for the size of the screw you're putting. Find the middle of your canopy and measure out 5 inches from the middle on both sides (The distance between the bolts on the light). Then screw the unistrut on your canopy. Measure the inside width of the unistrut and measure out the width on the flat aluminum and I used a jigsaw to cut it, depending on how many lights you're running you need two for every light. Then after that's done drill a hole in the middle(of you use the same bolts as me I drilled it with a 5/16) of the all the aluminum pieces, get your bolt and loop your wire that came with the light and tighten the bolt (you use put washers on there to be safe). Then put it all up and plug it in! Hope it helps!
