    Just for ****’s and giggles I unboxed the lights and clamped the reworked light bar into place. EBA98ED5-6EBD-4E5D-B2BD-15AF4AEC5B4A.jpeg 2C9CC412-87B1-4719-B7F6-1A6C7723E98F.jpeg E28EDF38-202D-4128-8190-65E9C25B4D1F.jpeg 172784F4-1D7E-409C-8EE3-AF0CC5AA3D03.jpeg

    One thing I forgot to mention was in the past I have heated the cast stainless and bent it slightly. I've only done this with the stainless steering arms to get them to work with some wishbones. I am a friend with the manufacturer and he said as long as I didn't get carried away with the heat it would be fine. All I had to do was repolish them. I have no idea if the stainless used in the headlight stands is the same but they are made by the same person/
     
  3. I finally saved the bar. Heated and bended.
    Now it’s alright.
    Thanks you all for your help
