Default Universal bow light?

I'm trying to find a universal light i can mount on my bow if there is one. My apex sight didnt come with a light or a light mount. Any ideas?

*** sorry if this is the wrong section. Wasn't sure where else, but thanks for any help!

A quick look through my current Cabela's ARCHERY book shows a Rheostat light Kit for $34.99. In the discription, it says that it includes 4 threaded bases to fit Optix, Apex, TruGlo, and Trophy Ridge, Cooper John, Extreme, PSE, and Viper sights.

SO, it sounds like it could/should work for you. Cabela's part #MZ- 41-8473.

Two choices IMO. G5 makes an awesome one for like 35 bucks or TruGlo makes one for 14 bucks. Both work on just about everything and will hold up. The G5 has 8 different settings.

will these work even if there doesn't appear to be anywhere on the sight to mount a light? that's a problem i was running into. maybe it would be easier if i found a link showing you guys exactly what sight it is.. it's one of apex's cheaper priced 4 pin sight. i think the sight itself is plastic and the mount for the sight is metal. the guy gave it to me for free. thanks for the responses tho gentlemen
