[TR] TR3 badge bars

HI Terry,     Tell us what you end up with.     I bought a badge bar and put
on Lucas driving lights and my various badges. My TR3A had been running
consistently at 185 F regardless of outside temperatures. With the badges and
all it jumped to about 205 to 210. I took the badges off, but left the bar and
lights on and it is still running 200 or so. I probably will just remove the
works completely now.     I might make up something to mount the lights below
the grill in front of the bumper and then hope I don't bump something.

I do not remotely like the TR3A badge bar and I'm no longer a stickler 
for originality.  I have a post TS60000 3A that I would like to put 
driving lights on

Does anyone know if the badge bar made for the early TR3 bumper fits the 
late TR3A bumper???  If not does anyone know if the early bumper fits a 
late 3A.

Also as I remember the bumper mounts of a TR3A and a big Healey are the 
same space apart.  Has anyone tried to fit a big Healey badge bar to a 
late TR3A?

I need a new bumper and overriders & thought I would look for a solution 
that would allow me to mount my lights low in front of the grille.

Teriann
