best picture i could find
Chris,
The headlight bar shown is not standard MK so it may not be relevant (not obvious though snoopy). I made it from 1" section with 2 pieces of
25x3mm flat welded top and bottom and clamped to the chassis rail by an M8 on the inside.
It was in the early days and I was after a way of doing it that mean't that the nosecone didn't need modifying. The 3mm thickness on the
top gets taken up with the fiberglass side panel.
BTW I've since removed the duck tape so it fires on all 4 and the lawn mower is still going strong
Cheers,
Colin

didn't realise they came pre drilled, i had to guess my own when i built mine, think mine sits slightly in front of the suspension
