## The Classic Mini DIY Rally Lights

For those of you who have been watching my channel, you know I have a mini with a big set of 4 Hella Driving Lamps on the front. Over the years I have received countless requests for these brackets, where to buy them, and more.

**Today I am happy to announce, they are now availble on my store! Custom laser cut, and machine bent brackets to suit my personal rally light design.**

These light brackets are now on the CMDIY store and are made to suit all model years of Classic Minis. I believe this is one of the best way to add that rally look to your Classic Mini.

This simple 2 bolt mounting system using the original rubber bumper holes on the top of the valance(we recommend using riv-nuts), and only requiring the drilling of two holes on your lower bumper lip, makes the install a breeze!

Currently we have verified the following lights as compatible with our kit, with more to come in the future.

I have owned my Classic Mini for almost 16 years and over those years the car has gone through many revisions. Starting its life as a simple Mk1 restoration with a 1275cc transplant, to a full blown drive by wire, turbocharged, performance machine. The car has lived a life as a simple people mover, and it’s lived as a fast road NA performance car.

However, one thing has always been a constant…I love the look of Rally Race Minis.

Rally racing has always been a strong undercurrent for the Classic Mini. With **a huge variety** of different looks. I mean just look at them…
