Thanks, Tim. Some things to consider that might make this tricky car-to-car would be the distance between the quick jack attaching bolts, the diameter of lamps being used, and the lamp mounting post hole location position such that the body of the lamps clears the "snout" or form of the body at the radiator opening. I constructed these brackets so the lights were "tucked in" close to the body and still cleared the light projection of the main headlamps....I can make a copy of my pattern and send it to you if you like...let me know. Then you could modify it as needed based on your specifics and give the pattern to a local sheet metal shop to make the brackets if making them yourself is not an option.. As far as the wiring goes, your assumptions sound correct..you could wire them to work any number of ways when using a basic automotive relay..

Yeah...I'm really glad I didn't clean the car up for that event..especially after they ran me through the soggy grass to park behind Bill's car. I'm kind of partial to the "freshly rallied" look myself...
Rode hard and put away wet..isn't that what they say?

A question and a suggestion ...
- In your previous post with the photos of different Cobras with driving lamps, what's up with the roof on the red Cobra #3 ... a 'Gurney Bubble'?
- Try a set of white turn signal lens covers in place of the amber, you just might like the look.
Keep up the good work!

Thanks, Tim. I'll be sure to post back when I finally get them wired up. I need to focus now on getting the split trunklid latching/hinging completed and return the pieces back to Bruce so he can add the finishing touches to them before painting those pieces as well as the Lemans top. I did consider the clear lenses and likely will look for a set. As far as the bubble on HEM 6, I think that is to clear his roll bar..so yes..sort of a 'Gurney Bubble'
