Your brackets worked out great. Thanks Pierre!

Thank you for your post.

I do have a question if you don't mind.

How far is the top of the lamp from the grille? I ask because there seems to be so much variation between cars, and of course, different lamps have different sizes.

Thanks.

Kind of tight! I have the lights tilted a bit so they don't touch the grills. I think there is about 1/4" clearance. Also note I have A/C, so your brackets are spaced a little farther out from the hood support than non-A/C cars.

I want to make sure i understand you correctly. You have a 1/4 inch clearance between the grille and the top of the lamp but your light is tilted down. Does the light need to tilt up more in order to give you the proper light pattern? If so, how much?

If you can not get the proper tilt for proper illumination due to interference with the grille, please let me know. I may have a solution for you. Thanks.

Was your car ever hit in the nose or had a nose panel replaced?

[jgerock]

That was an early picture when I first tried to fit the driver's side light. The light was tilted down too much. Now the lights are pointed correctly but are still very close to the upper section of the grill. I was going to add a couple of washers between the light and your brackets but don't think they will be needed.

I recall you have a different set for Square tail light cars with the thicker plastic grills. These would most likely work better for those folks with larger (deeper) aux. lights.

The nose on my car was indeed replaced a long time ago (still no snorkle!).

The brackets are designed for the lamps to be close to the grille to provide a sleek look. On some cars, they are very close but I have yet to see someone tell me that they touch and still can't get them upright enough to provide proper illumination. But I keep asking to make sure.

Thank you for your feedback.
