Mods, please leave for a few hours, I need to get these TODAY.

Need to get hold of some chrome/stainless steel backed spot/driving lights, with mounting brackets at the bottom.

Anyone know where i can get these from, we only seem to be able to find plastic-backed ones!

Its not for a scoob, so needs to have a mounting bracket on the bottom. Its for the missus' Beetle, and i'm gonna be in trouble if i dont get it sorted before we go away on Friday!!!

The only ones i've found with chrome were far too big!!

BuRR:

I'd already asked about them but i expect the mounting is behind rather than beneath and he said that they are not metal-backed... Cheers tho

I've just found some that are 6" but can't work out if that's too big..

Just to clarify,
they are steel backed, just not chromed, and yes the mounting plates are behind the lights

Mountings need to be on the bottom for this, as its for the bumper of a beetle. Chrome would be a bonus, but NOT PLASTIC is the instruction I have, so assume stainless steel etc is fine.

If you look at this picture:


I'm after the smaller set of driving/spot lights (not the big beggars in the middle!!!), with chrome/metal backs.

Question

Actually, you can have almost ANYTHING chromed, so if you can find some you like, then look into that..................?
Bikers/car-show nuts do it all the time.
