RS lights

Can any please tell me if this is the correct way these mount?  (the black metal thingy's that hold the globes)
 
I'm missing the opposite one to the one with the curve at the bottom for the left side if anyone can help.

    The one pictured on the left I believe to be upside down This bracket started life in Australia as a Cortina XLE headlight mount, When Ford in Australia needed lights for the  Aussie RS, they cut the Cortina bracket in half and drilled new mounting holes, this separated the lights to allow them to fit the nose cone. If you ever get the chance to see an import RS with the nose off they are nothing alike. Hope this helps as if you can't track down an RS one then you can also look for a Cortina bracket and cut it in half.

    Yep it does thanks mate.
     
     Looks like I missing the 3rd from left in Gdub's picture.
     
    Nothing worse than rebuilding a car bought stripped and in cardboard boxes.
     
    Cheers Mark
