    SWB TTG bracket install details

    Can anybody share photos or details on how to anchor the TTG brackets on a SWB car? Trying to figure how are they anchored to body and hardware needed but limited information on forums/books/web.
    Thanks in advance!

    Quandary for me also. Is there a template used to create the holes through which the mounts bolts go through. Would seem to be particularly critical to aligning through the grill cut out as well as angling the lamp straight forward. Lots of good info but nobody seems to address this. Couldn't answer this question on 912BBS or the Pelican that my search yielded. On the LWB the holes would appear to be predrilled in the battery box if I read everything correctly.

    Hi Javier...

    Do you have the flat plate that secures the bracket?

    If you don't have them I will fabricate a couple and send them to you along with lock washers and nuts.

    Yes, exactly, does the body panel needs to be drilled right behind the grill in order to get the bolts through and then secured with the second plate from below?
