WTB gas headlight mounting brackets
I have a set of brass headlights that need mounting brackets hook type. I have called all the suppliers and none have any at this time. I would take any condition at this point. Thanks manny

Re: WTB Headlight mounting hooks
Lack of replies could just come down to we don't know what it is that you are looking for. Do you mean the casting on either side that the lamp is mounted to forks with? Do mean something else? If you are asking about gas headlights we would need to know what brand of gas headlights they are, that is going to make a difference. We are going to need more information for anyone to help. Seems like you are working on a 26/27, so brass lamps would be throwing us a curve.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas!

Re: WTB Headlight mounting hooks
So you’re building a speedster on a fifteen style T.
Here is a link to one of the vendors it shows the steel & polished brass style of reproductions.

Re: WTB Headlight mounting hooks
You might want to click on the pencil thing and edit your title and change it to gas headlight forks.
