Default Help...need Photo

Need photo of chevy express with composite headlights....I'm interested in the mounting points for the headlight unit onto the radiator core support..


I ordered an aftermarket radiator Core support and it doesn't have the little bracket where the lights clip on....


Can anyone out there help?

Default done

even though the aftermarket parts come modified...they didn't include the cut-outs for the bottom light housing brackets.....I just cut slots being sure to leave enough lip for the bracket's end to catch....


DONE......onto chrome bumpers.

the bottoms hook in to the little tabs that you are pointing too.

look at this post, the pictures that have the little "X's", that is what needs to be cut out for the bottom brackets of the lights to latch on to. Then the top of the lights get screwed as show above,
