[Mgs] Driving lamps on a 70 MGB

[Dodd, Kelvin]

Gene:

You can mount smaller rectangular fog lights below the bumper by
attaching a tab to the bottom reinforcement. I guess if you really had
to have driving lights the way to do it would be to fabricate brackets
that mount to the frame extensions then come forward through the intake
holes.

Take a look at how the badge bar fits. You could fab up something like
it sitting a bit lower for the lamps to fit on.

You might be able to install light weight driving lamps on the badge bar
itself using the new clamps that just came in, but I don't know how
stable it would be.

This thread got me pottering around in the shop last night offering up a
pair of Romanian Cibie Oscar knockoffs up to the front bumper of my 1970
MGB. I figure if the over riders were removed, I could make up a pair of
brackets that mount the lamps where they were. I still love the Pro
Rally, lots o lamps look. Maybe tonight.
