Can anyone tell me how the headlight retaining springs go on an LC/LJ? Not sure if I have installed correctly (Attached to rad support panel, then headlight bucket), but I don't know how else the headlight buckets stay in place. The way I have it fitted leaves only two spots to attach the chrome dress/retaining ring, and manual doesn't really show how the springs get installed. Thanks in advance, paul.

(Wasn't sure which section to post in so have just chosen "general"

The spring attaches to the headlamp retaining ring, into a slot in the side.

Thanks Kev, makes perfect sense, does the flat section of spring still go into radiator support?  paul
