Can anyone advise how to fit spotlight brackets to a Round nose? These are the typical brackets available across the net.
I can't find any info on how the actually attach to he car.

Cheers

Usually some holes have to be drilled in the body somwhere for the brackets to mount too, for example, I had to drill four holes just under the grille behind the bumper.

I'm not sure about roundies, but with my clubby I just took off the grill, drilled two holes and made them out of some aluminium bar. They've worked fine for the last 2 years. Just make sure you use some big washers to prevent them from tearing the sheet metal if they get knocked.
