Hi - would anyone know where I could pick up a pair of chrome headlamp brackets with Marzocchi shrouds for a triple in the UK?

Alpino brackets may be the same but I’m not sure if the shrouds are the same..

Don't forget the alloy spacer and the rubber ring each side.

This is a good hint from Paul.
The aluminum rings have often been lost over the decades.

Alternatively as an "emergency solution" (or for rat-bikes), you can use an old fork seal ring at the top and bottom . The spring inside can be removed. The smooth sides on the outside, the lamp holder is inserted into the open side of the fork seals.

Since the distance between the fork-clamps can be slightly larger, this may have to be compensated for with a washer on the head tube.

But it's not a problem and works perfectly over 50K km.

I know you asked for UK supplier, but Wolfgang in Canada isn't impacted by the UK-EU import shenanigans and worth trying for that reason, as well as the fact that he holds most parts. :) Yes, it'll cost you VAT & duty, but that isn't a new thing for him or Parcelforce to handle. Unless you already have them, you'll also need the anti-vibration rubbers between the shrouds and brackets, plus fixings.

Subject to confirmation, Wolfgang isn't dealing outside of the American Continent anymore.
ie: Canada, USA and Guatemala.

I did ask him a couple of weeks ago. He confirmed that he is for the moment still sending to the UK, France, Spain and Scandinavia.
