Hi Scott
I think i`ve got an old one of these fairings in the loft , I`ll try and dig it out when later .
As far as i remember the light units clip into a black plastic mounting ring and the adjusting screws then mount to the fairing .
I`l have a look to see if i still have it and take some pics.

The lights clip in with the three spring loops , light adjust via the wing nuts at the back.

I’ve got a set of genuine cibies but no mounting brackets.

Had them on my Z1R

Mick (sock puppet) would you please take a few images of the back of the Cibie headlight. That will show how they connect to the Morette ring. The Cibie's from Demon Tweeks are not Cibie's but Hella's instead, even though they are advertising them as Cibie's :roll: and they don't fit and the side light is offset :roll: . Sourcing the right Cibie's would be so much easier if i knew what they looked like from the back.

Chrisu, if you have any images of the rear of your Cibie's then that would help too, please.

Thanks very much Gus, really appreciated.

Unbelievably, Morette called me today and said they could provide exactly what I need, both holders and headlights. :bng :bng :bng :bng :bng
