Quick Headlight mounting question

I got new Trucklite LED Headlamps and ordered these from RN to mount them:

Do I need headlamp buckets? A couple of install videos I watched on youtube talk about these buckets, but they're listed as Series Headlamp Buckets on Rovers North. I have an 86 ex-MOD truck. The original had these rubber sleeves on the back of the headlamps, but I don't remember any buckets. Kind of confusing...

If you are just replacing your current bulbs for LEDs you won't need anything else. They are plug-n-play direct replacements.

I'm replacing the entire headlamp with the trucklite ones. The guy that works on my truck said I was missing mounting hardware. He usually works on Series trucks so he may be used to seeing buckets.

I installed Trucklites and did not need any new hardware. Simple one for one replacement.

Edit: MoD trucks may be different. Sorry.

I used those a few times and had no issues with them (led and standard headlamps). I also have no idea how mod trucks vary, but nothing else was needed. Rusty buckets went in the bin.
