MG TD TF 1500 - Stone Guards for TD Headlights

Moss has a headlamp stone guard kit and I was curious whether anyone had used it,and their results. I don't see where there is any room for the attachment brackets between the lamp and the rim, but then I'm not clear as to how they attach.

I have a pair of stone guards for the TF, but can not fit them as there is not enough room between the inner lamp retaining ring and the outer chrome finishing ring. One of my outer rings is OEM the other from Moss. The inner ones are repros.

Had a set ...lost one, bought 2 more. The clips that hold them on rusted first time they got wet.
IMHO: Pretty hookey set up...sold the remaing 3 on ebay (they will need a spare!)
The old school ones that go on with a "thumscrew" I would consider if I found NOS ...the repros ...not worth the effort.

Richard, a few years ago I bought the Moss covers and they did not fit unless one drilled them in. They at the time fit the TF without drilling but not the TD. Dont know if they changed or not but I dont have them on my car,DId not want to drillinto those expensive buckets.
