Headlamp anti theft brackets

Just seen these on Facebook in the Discovery 3 & 4 Owners Parts/Sales Group.

Anyone fitted these? Seem quite reasonably priced.

They're from Ryan Wild, the same person who developed the tow bar security plate, so I'd trust the thought and execution.

This is Ryan's eBay shop: -

https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/laser1212

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.

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: -


But better like this: -

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!

random thought time ...

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 Very Happy

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!

Please forgive my naivety but are these just to stop the headlights being stolen, or is there another reason for them?
