they are indeed handed

and you can put them on updside down
however the reflectors will need to come out again in order to swapsie

unless the holy grail has been found
and you have discovered an alternative light which fits

in which case you will be very popular in australia..

bezel is multi use fits either side either way up
its the outer part of the lense bezel sandwich

lens
lens seal
reflector
Bezel

held together with
small metal push on washers

they tend to eat into and eventually corrode off the small metal spikes they sit on which are cast into the Bezel

meaning most lights are held toghter with bathroom sealant

a better method is to drill a tiny hole from the screw housing on the ouside of the bezel up the side of the reflector to a small reciver hole at the top
and use spring steel rod across the edge of the reflector
bend over spring steel at the screw end so it catches the screw head


this ebay chap does the seals

his are expensive
but much cheaper than Ray and Ray at PP&R

the bezels in the pics from PP&R are the correct way round

you deffinitly have the bezels fitted as that smooth bit next to the lens looks identical to mine....just mine is on the correct way round
and its chrome there and not black

Dave as ever you are on the mark, I am missing the pressed C front flat light surrounds. Anyone have a pair ????

The rectangular finned bezel has been fitted the wrong way round, on the driving lights now rectified.

Yep it's the green one from Lincoln, I believe you do have the diff, now theres a standard Borg Warner 7 3/4 fitted.

Ah Dave you have a keen eye dear sir.....

Rummaging around a box of bits in the garage found the alloy indicator surrounds which are moulded to fit under the front indicators. I always wondered what they were and thought they would be an interior part as I have loads of metal trim work for the interior to fit at some point.

Now I know their true application I need to get them sprayed and fit.
