Default Unknown tail light bracket

Trying to ID what vehicle this bracket was used on. It fits two of the standard CMP side marker/tail/stop lights. The white/red tags look like the same style as used on the Mk2 Universal Carrier. There is no other markings on it at all.

Any help would be most appreciated.

same same CMP Jordan. Never seen this part before but it's obviously designed for pre-existing hole pattern, which points to chassis frame somewhere - perhaps CMP rear crossmember? Should be possible to ID by hole centre measurement.

Hi Tony,

The hole center difference is 3 3/4" or 95mm.

Hi Brian,

I have the same bracket (see picture), unfortunately without part numbers,
I have a bracket with the same kind of mounting and excactly the same hole center distance, but a different style for lights.
It has the part number C11AS-13470 on its, which directs to a car or utlity vehicle on a 114 inch wheelbase.

Hope this helps a bit.

Have a good flight!

Stefan
