Default Fairing assembly

I'm putting together a fairing for my bike. I got it disassembled, so I'm figuring it out as I go. One thing I'm curious of is how the spot lights are held in the light pods. Do the grommets hold the bulbs in? What holds the grommets in place?

One more question, Where do the curved, side support brackets go on the frame?

Thanks!

How did you end up putting the lights into the pods? I’ll be doing the same soon myself
