Re: Hickey windshield light brackets NEW

How did you know the measurement to mount them on the windshield drip rail? Also, you said self tapping screws to mount, did you predrill a pilot hole? If so, how did you get in there at that angle to the windshield it seems so tight to the glass? Any luck selling your set? Nice work Sir!
