Mount for Meilan X5 Turn Signal light onto Kestrel Talon X (55cm).

Printed PETG, 0.2 Speed using 0.4 Nozzle.
20% Infill, Grid (others may work better).

 

It fits a bit snug, but should be fine reusing the existing Meilan Mount and screws.

About 95mm of 3M Electrical tape should provide enough padding along the inside for the post-mount.

 

Design could use a few more adjustments, but works for my needs at the moment.
Potential future fixes:
+Screw tabs to better secure clamp to the post
+Modify (design or infill) to be more flexible.  Heard a crunch when sliding onto post, but seems to be secure.
+Could do without the 16/74 degree angle modification as it seems an angled post was already accounted for in the Meilan mounting hardware. I have it angled downward at its maximum at this point.  But, I'm not good enough with Fusion360 to correct this after the fact.
