Light Brackets.

[norms55]

Hi everyone. I'm going to install a pair of the 7" driving lights on my BN1. Would anyone want share a design for set of brackets. I'm removing the front bumper and would like to just use the frame bolts to attach a bracket. thanks..

Dennis welsh has them

All the major parts suppliers have brackets for rally type lights that bolt to the bumper iron points .

I like the kind with the built in tow eyes ... just sayin'

AH Spares in the UK also has a set that I liked because they have brackets that mount to both sides of the strut, have a tow eyes and are predrilled for the lights. Offer great protection for the lower shroud with the bumper removed. Shipping was fast. Arrived in two days.

Here's a link to my Project Paper for driving light brackets... https://www.stevesaustinhealey.com/...riving-light-mounts&catid=2:projects&Itemid=3

It may give you some ideas of your own.

Cheers,

Steve - love those light guards - where were they from?

CanberraBJ8,
Interesting that you should ask.... I hunted for these, or something like this, for years. I discovered Keith Ardley at the auto jumble in Beaulieu, UK in 2002. He does, in my estimation, the most beautiful stone guards I've seen. His are chrome on brass. He's also one of the few to do them for 7" lights... also does them in 6". The knurled cap that covers the nut really trims it out beautifully. If you like quality detail, these are the ones. I have no commercial interest... just an admiring customer. He can be reached by email at: kieth@ardley8142.fsnet.co.uk

His address is:
Keith Ardley
Reflector Resilvering Service
Bedford House
14 Bridge Road
Mepal, Ely
Cambridgeshire CB6 2AR
U.K.

Cheers,
Steve

I fabricated some out of left over metal. Bolting into the bumber bracket holes. Car is gone, but I'm sure I could dig up a pic somewhere if you are interested in a DIY project.
