The rectangular Cibies have a slot on each side of the headlight about 1/8" wide and 3/4" long oriented horizontally front to back in the mounted position. It appears that the mount would have tabs which would lock into these slots, but I have never seen Cibies in their native habitat ;-). I will need to fab a frame which locks into these slots and provides anchor points (holes) for the Vanagon adjusters... Can anyone describe the stock mounting method for these rectangular Cibies ? -- John Meeks Vanagon Rescue Squad http://www.vanagonauts.com/Vanagon_Rescue_Squad74.htm '91 Multivan, '85 GL Northern Michigan KC8ZFN
