V8S chrome ring fixing

[BHGi]

Could anyone please let me know if there is any particular bracket that I should use to fix a new outer chrome ring for the headlights? My old one fell off and I used the helpful parts list to get a new Wipac S5445. This has one screw that seems to fix to a bracket which fixes it to the body but the bracket has fallen off as well.
Thanks Giles

Think its a "home made" TVR thing, just knock one up out of an old beer can or something

yes mine fell off as well. I managed to get one that screws into the body so it won't happen again

I agree with the beer can theory.

Just replaced my headlamp bowls and rims

dont forget you need little brackets on the rims, old rim below



The chrome bit holding the headlight into the bowl is probably unique certainly I couldnt swap the new ones onto the old bowls so the connectors had to be removed from the headlight wiring so I took the opportunity to replace connectors with waterproof one
