front headlight guards

hey guys, just picked up a set of front headlight guards, they are the factory rover part from a company online for my 08 lr2, my problem is that they didnt come with instructions on mounting them. I know you have to drill into the bumper to secure them but thats about it. Anyone know of a site or somewhere i can grab the install instructions for these thanks

Select a vehicle: Freelander 2
Document type: Accessory fitting instructions (last item on list - scroll down to it)
Then select Continue.
From the list find: LR002408 - Front lamp guards.

It's the only way to fix them, you need to drill holes. Phil

Thanks for the replies. Got a problem though,I downloaded the instructions but they show a template to use for the drilling the holes. Any ideas were to get just the template?

I am also missing the template for marking and drilling the holes, can anyone help me find/get/ email me these as I presume there paper cut outs?

Can't you use the guards themselves as a jig?. Offer them up into position and fix with masking tape, then mark the holes with a fine marker pen.

Hi

No as the 2 ends split from the guards and one is under the guard and one snaps tight to it so if you assemble for marking the holes are covered.
