Handlebar clutter

Apologies if this has come up before. I fitted aerobars a while back and have no room to fix my lights on for the winter. I seem to dimly recall someone on the forum talking about some kind of extender gadget that gives you extra space to fit lights, computers etc.
Anyone heard of it?
PS If you're thinking of suggesting I remove the aerobars as a solution, don't!

Those are the ones - very useful!
The basic space-bar is pretty cool, but the swing one is nice (just got one) and I put mine on the stem, leaning forwards over the handlebars. I put lights on the main 'bar' part, and my computer on the stalk bit.
But! they are a bit fiddly to put on, so if they'll attach it for free, go for it!0 -

Minoura swinggrip gets my recommendation.
The bars thinner than the handlebars, so you'll have to bear that in mind when thinking what goes where.

Same here, I'm using Scott AT4 Pro bars on my commuter (they're circa 1995). Only 20 inches wide, so fitting anything on there is an issue. With the GPS on the Stem, I can fit a Cateye LED lamp and a Cyglo Nightrider on the Swinggrip, with also lifts the lights over the top of the aero part of the handlebars. I would have liked to fit it so the lamps were below the bars, but there's just not enough room.0
