You should have them on there. Look at the bottom of the housing, there is a black plastic bracket held on to the bucket with 3 screws.

I just checked, no brackets. I can see the 3 mounting supports but no bracket. Can't I just take them off the other buckets when I remove them? I guess the Morimotos don't come with the brackets and the guy that sold these to me needed them to mount his new lights.

I actually ran mine for a month or so with out using the brackets, when I was flip flopping bulbs around. Those brackets are pretty much just used for trim mounting IIRC, without pulling things apart again. .On your '18, it could be different. At the worse, you could always just use the ones off your OEM buckets.

Thanks John. That’s what I’ll do and just use the brackets off the originals.

Decided to offer up my SCT BDX and SCT windshield mount for sale, making a post later today. Just not sure if the gains are worth the hassle should a warranty situation arise.

Dean, I hope I simplified things. My plan is to use my leaf blower/vac to blow them all away from the house, mow them up, dump them onto a tarp in my truck bed and haul them to our local city dump (they take trees, mulch, leaves, grass, etc for free and burn it). Can't wait to load up that bed and clean up my back yard. Problem is tonight they are calling for snow flurries followed by freezing rain.
