They're from Ryan Wild, the same person who developed the tow bar security plate, so I'd trust the thought and execution.1972 Range Rover Classic 2 door V8

Towbar anti theft units are out of stock at moment but he said to watch the eBay shop and they'll be in there as soon they're made.
I've bought a set of headlamp brackets. I just sent him a PM on Facebook and he sent me his PayPal email address to pay.
Will report back when I get them.Discovery 4 HSE - Aintree Green

Thank you, have watched his shop, so should get notifications as parts added.

Received the brackets in the post today from Ryan. Just fitted them so thought I'd report back.
Nice sturdy bits of metal. Not easily bent! I know they won't stop a determined thief but it'll slow them down and stop any casual scrote trying to make an easy steal.
Dead easy to fit
Remove 2 x 80mm bolts.
Move the larger penny type washer under the bracket. (Mind you don't lose the 'o' ring when taking washer off.
Fit bracket and bolts arrangement and tighten up.
Think I might replace the 80mm bolts with some security/anti tamper screws at some point.
Tried fittiing like this: -

Thanks for the kind words guys... maybe need to rethink postal arrangements to avoid scratches in transit ... And the security bolts where next on my list to add with the plates..

Just received mine, and as said by others before, nicely made bits of kit!
Now, if ever this endless rain would stop, I'd go fit them!
how easy would it be to change the design slightly so that, once unscrewed, they are suitable for lifting the sliding lock bits ? means I could ditch the ty-wrap loop that's kept behind the offside light .

Now thats a good idea! Mine come out fairly easy after giving them a sand repaint and greased them. Also had them out about 4 time in as many months!Discovery 4 GS 2009 Auto Stornoway Grey

that's not a bad idea... may change design before next batch, down to my last few sets..

Please forgive my naivety but are these just to stop the headlights being stolen, or is there another reason for them?Discovery 4 GS 2009 Auto Stornoway Grey
