Exclamation DNA Driving Lights Install

Hey all... I have searched the last day and a half and haven't found anything in regards to installation of a third party driving lights.

I purchased a set from Speed Daddy that are the DNA Motoring, It come as a kit with the brackets, wiring harness and relay. Has anyone else have experience with this kit? My only issue is bracket mounting, it seems too short to reach the back bolts behind the bumper.

I emailed the seller before purchasing and he said they would fit.

Any thoughts?

Installation resembles the following:

Below is a link of the kit:

Those brackets do appear the same as the ones touted for the R60 so probably would be ok.

They are basically identical. For some reason they do not reach the back bolts.. Any thoughts? Am I attaching in the wrong location?

Can't see from your last pic. But the R60 ones have a further reach from what i have seen and a little different mount.

Yes,

They look different than those. You guys sell just the brackets by any chance? I noticed you have the kits.

For the Countryman / Paceman the brackets are not separate.
