Hi, they were made for a panzer IV regular hull, so none fit. After sorting out the available bracket material coming with the Tank Modellbau kit, I used and modified each of them the best I could to fit the Brummbar in the most accurate way possible, it's difficult. This mean cutting, tearing apart, spreading and changing the angles at both ends, reassembling, adding pieces, all held in place with drops of superglue. This left the brackets very fragile. Depending on your use of tanks with Schurzens in the field, I strongly recommend you take the time to create new brackets in brass to make them more resistant. Mine will tear and break at the slightest bump on something hard, pretty much like the real thing actually...
