Default Texas DPS strobe bracket

Here are a couple of shots of the bracket with a tape measure. I will post a few others soon whit the rest of the measurements.

This should be something that should be migrated to the resto document. I will also get shots of the 86 Ne car with the bracket up to it and maybe we can get a bracket setup for those who have early Texas cars.

Matt,

Send me a few more pics and the dimensions, and I'll add it to the DPS resto doc.

This is for '87-up cars, right?

Yes this is for the 87-93 cars of which I'm not sure when the cars went to all lightbars but I know all the 93's had the Jetsonic lightbars.

When I get home on the 19th I will get more pictures with all the dimensions needed to reproduce it.

I will also get a good couple of shots of how to get a bracket made up for the 85-86 cars when I get home (10-19-07). Based on the photos from Roman's site it appears to be the same width apart based on me holding my 87 bracket up to my 86 when I was at home last. I will get out the halogens and strap them to the bracket some how to test fit and show correction areas for the right 85-86 fit.

I will also get you the complete dimensions for the 87 bracket too.

Matt

I guess you're leaving me hanging with the '83 brackets?

JK...good stuff and I'm sure helpful to many who will need the info in the future.
