Need help with location for the "Opera lights" on a '65 Cat. I have the brackets that mount to the framework above the windows. There are no cooresponding holes in the frame to accept the mounting screws but drilling a couple holes is no problem. I think they mount between the listing wires, If so, it's a tight fit. Can anyone help? Pictures would be extremely helpful.
Thanks!!

There should be "dimples" in the sheet metal where the holes should go...

I looked for dimples, no luck. I think the lights mount between a couple of the listing wires. Do any of your big cars have these lights? If so, are they located between the wires? Thanks

I looked at a 66 Starchief with them yesterday. Was almost split 60/40 between where the driver and qtr window rolls up. 60% farther back. I am going out there in a few days and get some pics if needed.

If you can let me know how far back the front of the lights are from the windshield that would be very helpful. Also if the lights are placed between the listing wires. That should give me a good idea as to where they are mounted. If they are set between the front and rear windows on a 4 door (Starchief), they would probably be set above the back of the front glass only on a 2 door, as the glass is longer on a 2 door. Thanks again.....

sorry, this was on a 2 dr HT that I was looking at. I'll try to get some pics.

That's great, Brad, I do appreciate you help

I got this. I would think they go in the same general location no matter what body style.

Thanks, Matt, for the pics
