Question RCR 40 Headlamp Brackets

Hello fellow RCR builders,

I was wondering what folks are using for headlamp mounting brackets for your RCR-40s. I see that both Tornado and MDA list a bracket/fitment kit, and I would really like to get something OEM-ish that allows (relatively) easy adjustment. I'd hate to reinvent the wheel.

I am using the Neolite 974s right now (not the Valeos) if that makes a difference. According to the Neolite catalog this fits a 88 to 95 Renault (model unspecified) which I am unlikely to find in a local wrecking yard!

If anyone has purchased the Valeos and they come with mounting hardware, please let me know, as that would seem to be the way to go.

Thanks & Regards,

Al

Hi Al,
I know Fran just got a shipment of these in, and is planning on shipping them out to car owners. Apparantly he has been waiting on them for quite some time (6-12 mos)
I will be getting mine on Sat.

Al and all.

Rob is absolutely correct....I received 60 sets last week...and I have been waiting almost 12 months.....

I have some OEM Valeo lamps in stock but they do not come with OEM mounting hardware either......

I will be sending the backing plates out next week to all that need them.
