    The design of the bracket and the bracing mount behind the grill is in my view better than others I'm aware of for dealing with vibration.
    I haven't yet tested them on corrugated tracks but am confident they will handle the abuse. Certainly rock solid on normal roads.

    I've got the bracket fabricated in 5mm 316 stainless by Autospark in Osborne Park, it's pretty impressive. Very little vibration and the lights have survived the Gibb and Mitchell Falls track with nothing coming loose or falling off.
    Supply of the bracket, wiring loom and fitting (4 hours) was $700 all up so I thought it was reasonable all things considered.

    Greg, how are they wired? You have spots on and no headlights.

    I think it was because the headlights were on auto but it was daylight so they didn't trigger, but the driving lights are wired so they're on if the high beam wand is pushed forward. That's my guess anyway, I'd never actually thought about it because I only ever use them properly at night. Very big kangas down where I live.

    People can pay or not pay. I know if I sat down and designed some brackets, tested them had them cut and folded in stainless it would cost me a lot more in time and effort than what they are asking.
