My 1971 2a (H'lights in guards) has stuffed headlight cones, rusted actually. Can anyone give me a lead on a supplier for something like this??

I am after the outer cone, the rubber boot that also protects the adjuster screws, and the inner smaller cone.

They're the same as Series 3s. Try any wrecker with Landies in his stash. Also, Series 2As (lights in the grille) with chrome bezels use them, and these may be in better nick due to them not being sprayed with muck that Late 2As and 3s are.

Probably a lot of other vehicles with round, particularly Lucas, lights would be the same - these were fitted to Holdens for example as well as a lot of English cars. Any long established wrecker, preferably away from the coast, would probably be able to help.
