This is what I use for my Lexar 4GB thumbdrive.  I think I got the values 
by looking at dmesg after inserting the drive.

It's been a few years, so I'm not sure I can reconstruct all the steps 
without spending some time thinking about it.

/etc/udev/rules.d/58-Lexar.rules:

KERNEL=="sd?1", ATTRS{idVendor}=="05dc", ATTRS{idProduct}=="a732", 
SYMLINK+="lexar"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd?1", ATTRS{idVendor}=="05dc", 
ATTRS{idProduct}=="a732", RUN+="/bin/mkdir /mnt/lexar"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd?1", ATTRS{idVendor}=="05dc", 
ATTRS{idProduct}=="a732", RUN+="/bin/mount -t vfat -o 
sync,flush,uid=1000,gid=100 /dev/lexar /mnt/lexar"
ACTION=="remove", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="05dc", 
ENV{ID_MODEL_ID}=="a732", RUN+="/bin/umount /mnt/lexar"
ACTION=="remove", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="05dc", 
ENV{ID_MODEL_ID}=="a732", RUN+="/bin/rmdir /mnt/lexar"


Plug in the thumbdrive, and voila!  /mnt/lexar.
