My plus8 has overriders and a standard badgebar. The bar fills he gap between the overriders. To put spots on it would mask off the grill reducing airflow to rhe rad, I have arranged badges on it to minimise this. I have foglights on brackets on the wings and they are solid....no issues. I have never used them! Even at night, as the light is not long distance like spots. I have nightbreaker bulbs in the headlights and there is a small improve,ent...cost £15 so cheap enough to try.

and the Borghi bar from Italy is the other option. This is not a badge bar (which would vibrate) but is fixed to each overrider for added stability. Of course this means drilling a hole in each overrider.
The photos of mine are at http://www.talkmorgan.com/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/99681/Since these photos were taken I have fitted some badges.

I rarely drive my Morgan at night.... but I did in France last summer. It was huge fun with the top down at night. I felt like a kid all over again.

Thanks for the suggestions. I rather like the brackets behind the overiders. I was very interested to note that no-one mentioned the risk of cracking of the wings. I think I will go with bolting the lamps directly on to the wings using the rear facing bracket. That option seems to be the neatest since although the MMC brackets are certainly substantial it results in several bolts being visible. Mounting directly on the wings also gives an option of using a bracing bar behind the wing if necessary.

The Librands brackets are superb well made all stainless i fitted them on my plus four they come with a thick rubber gasket and no vibration, much better than the Morgan ones they have a hole integral on the bracket with a rubber gromet to feed the wire through. They also look very good you wont be dissapointed.

Em I think they might have been better at one time but the ones currently available through MMC are pretty nice and they do have a hole for the wire
