So left the car jacked up on stands from winter storage to do this upgrade (finally!!). I have all the parts and cruised the site just to familiarize myself with the task. Looks easy enuf. Best idea was the rivet nuts... going to get a manual rivet nut tool. Figured I'd use it for other work and it looks like less effort than the $2 bolt, nuts, wrench thingy. I see two items that would be the biggest challenge. Moving the horn, which I can tackle (haven't decide to do the suzuki horn replacement yet) and the other is the upper bracket.
On the elephant instructions, there is the "Z" shaped bracket. This bracket is not available for separate purchase, and it looks easily enough to bend out of metal stock. I am wondering if someone has measured the distance of the metal between the "L" bends, to save me some time. Otherwise I'll wing it via the trial and error method once I determine how far up on the back of the headlight housing it needs to be. Thanks and I hope the weather gets warmer so I can work on it in the garage....
