Default Headlamp stone guards - How to fit?

I recently bought a pair of headlamp stone guards for my Amazon which came with three fixing brackets, each with a screw hole at one end. There were no instructions and I'm rather baffled as to how to fit them. The screw holes are small so they won't fix to the headlamp bowl. I guess, therefore that they fix to the headlamp adjuster screws somehow. But which way? If anyone has fitted them on their car and can post a photo then that would be great. Cheers

Hi,
I have never fitted these though am willing to have an educated guess.

Remove the headlamp rim, 1 screw at 6 oclock.
Now note 3 screws retaining inner rim.
Remove 1 screw only at any time and fix one of your protector mounts under same screw.
Fix protector to all 3 screws. 1 at a time so as not to drop headlght unit.
You should now be able to refit outer headlamp rim.

Chris is correct, and this is how they look when fitted. The tabs bend so that you can remove and refit the guards. Probably best to fit rim, then guard.

Andy.
