The brackets are already on your existing foglights - you just reuse them on the new lights. See Caveman Dave's fitting guide (http://www.totalmini.com/forum/18-2006-2014-2nd-generation/1319-2nd-gen-drl-fitting-guide.html).

You have to remove the existing fog lights and you'll have 2 black rings attached to them, pull them off and fit the DRLs in them ;)

The sidelight-only lights are the same housing just with one light (and an ugly bulge to make it obvious that Mini weren't paid extra for the fog lights...).

What are you doing about fog light wiring, or are you only intending to use the DRL and sidelight functions?
