I used modified versions of the 2.5N/A brackets on the top of my radiator, I welded the pins onto the top of the radiator frame to suit.
Thee modifications consisted of cut-outs to miss various mounts on the top pannel.

I have those brackets Mate. So did you just bolt to side of wings then weld pins to suit hole. ? more pics of where brackets fit would be great.

Yes, they bolt to the inner wing, although it is very difficult to get to the bolts. There should be captive nuts on the inner wigs.
Your radiator looks to be a little higher than mine, so I don't know how that will affect the fit.
The pins on the top were welded in place to match the brackets.

Thanks will have a look on inner wings . So should the holes in Brackets line up to holes on wings ?
 
Right back to this job again. Finally got a pair of the right mounts in first pic, should have them in a couple of days. Now Do I need to cut a piece off one in second pic for Bonnet thingy ?
