Please email to sales@mtcexhausts.co.uk Regards Martin This might help a bit. In the exploded diagram the 2 parts of the back bit are combined and not shown blown apart. you can just about see on the last pic that the adjusting screws have a black plastic bit which fits into the front section and this is an element on its own that the light sits in and then ring then holds it in place.

martin mtc Posted January 29, 2022 Author Share Posted January 29, 2022 Hi Andy , Thanks for the pic , I worked it out in the end , I know I'm going to possibly upset some hard line purists but it's what I wanted, I'd rather see and be seen, than have some old restored headlights. 1 adjusting clip was broken so I'm getting some made. ( that's why it's missing 1 headlight) Would anyone be interested in some new headlight adjusting clips? Regards Martin Leigh 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

611 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Nice, i see you are copying me 🙂 When i did mine they didn't have much in the way of led ones. Im using BMW ones and i think the less white style suits my red color, but i do think those look pretty smart witj your color. I take it you are going for the black chrome look with all the trim?
