headlight mount diameter

I'm just at my dads work now making up my rear trailing arms and found a length of large diameter tubing which may be suitable for the headlight mounts but I don't have my book with me to check what size is needed.

Does anyone know that diameter of that tube that the headlights bolt through? Or have a diagram of the headlight mounts for the standard chassis?

Cheers!

Brilliant! Thanks!

Unfortunatly this stuff is 60mm. Damn.

Only 45 he has is a 4mm wall thickness! Bit over engineered there I think!

Ill keep hunting!

I got given a set of brand new headlights, and they have trumpet things on the bolts that clamp onto the mount. But as I'm not at home I can't measure them!
