Looking for a *small* light that mounts on a GoPro mount

I'm looking for a small light that has the 2 tab mounting system like a GoPro camera housing.

I want to mount it to a 3 tab GoPro mount like this one so it is hidden neatly under my Garmin.

I Googled a bit but only found one fairly expensive light (over $100) that seemed to have that kind of mount.
Anybody know of anything cheap and fairly compact OR a universal 2 tab adapter?

There is a guy in Vancouver BC that makes aluminum mounts for the Magicshine and other lights from China. He basically replaces the standard Magicshine light mount (rubber bands) and replaces it wit a piece that directly fits a GoPro mount. His website is here. GoPro adapters for bike lights .

This opens up a wide range of possible headlights for you.

I ended up getting a the L&M Urban 350 and one of the GoPro type brackets that can attach to it. A little more than what I was wanted to spend, but it looks like a pretty solid off the rack solution.
