Does anyone know of a source (or were they used on other British cars) of the chrome headlight bezels for a Series 2 car?\

 

Thanks in advance, Jim

When you say bezel, are you also referring to the bowls?

Lucas or Cibie?

I would upgrade the lamps.

I'm talking about the chrome ring that surrounds the headlight bulb for Lucas headlights.  Attached are some photos.  It appears to be held on by a screw clip at the top and a riveted bracket the slips in a slot at the bottom.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Can you take one apart and take a photo of the back side mounting arrangement? It could be similar to the chrome rings used on other British cars from the 60's. MG's, Triumph's, Austin-Healey's, etc.

A couple suppliers I've used in the past:

Does it look anything like this one? This is from a Morgan flat radiator model from the 50's.

Hi Jim.

If Holden doesn't have the Lucas headlamp rim, you could try Stafford Vehicle Components in the U.K.  see: s-v-c.co.uk  

 

They sell a number of Lucas parts, and have a long list of headlamp spare parts and complete assemblies for sale.  Search for 'Stoneguards and rims' or just 'Lucas headlamps'.  I have no connection to the firm, just a very satisfied customer after they provided many 'original' (identical) electrical parts for my Seven..

Cheers W.
