I bought some 1 1/4" alluminum "C" channel and mounted the Radions to that, and then mounted the channel to the canopy. All in like $30. Waaaaay cheaper than the RMS mounts.
You could also use 8020 extruded alluminum channel if you thought you might want to slide the lights out of the way. The 8020 would cost more, but still less than the RMS mounts

Good idea. Thanks for the tip. I have a little over 3” from bottom to top. I think I can make that work and i won’t have to dig deep(er) into my pockets
