Can somebody provide detailed photos of how to install the Front Fog Lights Fitting Kit (where to mount it on the car)?
Thanks

This is how my (original) fog light brackets are fitted ...



These brackets use the original bolt holes provided by the factory

1976 TR7 FHC (currently undergoing some TLC ...)
1980 TR7 DHC (a.k.a. Kermette, my first car bought in 1988 )
1981 TR7 FHC (Sprint engined, a.k.a. 't Kreng)

Hi Beans
thanks

The brackets in your picture really look like they are made for this car, whereas the brackets YKC3721 (depicted above, same for LH and RH) don't.
But I am not sure whether there is a difference in the construction of the front chassis between the two cars?
The two holes in the brackets YKC3721 where the set screws SH106181 go through do fit the holes in the body the same way as your bracket does, but then there is a third hole which does not fit anywhere.

I am also planning to fit daylight running lamps, probably to the brackets shown in last post.

I got rid of the fog lamps since they didn't pass the MOT anyway and used the brackets shown above (post no. 4) to mount the daylight running lamps (see thread http://club.triumph.org.uk/cgi-bin/forum10/Blah.pl/Blah.pl?m-1387513279/)
