Default Ecklers Rectangular Headlights

Ladies & Gents;

I purchased the Ecklers rectangular headlight conversion kit, and found I was missing some parts after the body guy got through with them (I cannot get things installed). Dealing with Ecklers tech support, I simply got to the point where I had a response from him :

Hi

I'm sorry but I have nothing to look at to know exactly how they attach
... and then nothing more from him on any response (over a month). Does someone have one of these kits that can get me a photo of the units without the light assemblies in place (but with the rest of the hardware) ? It would go a long way to getting some functional lights.

I have this conversion installed. Whats missing from yours?? There isn't much in the way of hardware. The fibreglass housings mount using the original bolts. The lights are mounted using the standard adjustment screws http://willcoxcorvette.com/product_i...ducts_id=23768. Heres my 76 with the light kit.

All I have are those adjustment screws, the fiberglass, and the light assembly with a spring. I was thinking I should have some extra screws for the springs to attach to, but they are not working well. Do you have assembly instructions on installing the light (and the metal behind it) into the housing?

BTW.... looks good!
