NY WTB: Headlight Trim Rings - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**derotoreut** · 04-27-2020, 03:43 PM

Looking for at least two, possibly four headlight trim rings. Need them for two separate truck projects. OEM only and in nice shape with all tabs. Please no aftermarket. I'll take screws for them also if you have them. Thanks.

are you talking about 67 68 chevy trim rings? or the rings that hold the headlight to the bucket

**derotoreut** · 04-27-2020, 08:36 PM

I'm looking for headlight retainer rings that hold the headlights to the buckets. They have 3-tabs each with small screws. I need them for a '70 K10 & '71 C10. Sorry for the confusion.

Sure I'm interested. These are going on restoration projects, so they need to be in nice shape. And of course have all tabs. Can you confirm?

Need to dig them out and then I will post some photos for you. Jay

Here are photos of what I have - hope they are clear enough for you to see that all 4 have the three tabs intact. Of course could use a washing to clean up.

Thanks for the pictures Jay. Are these all the same four retaining rings in each of the pictures? Are they all OEM? Two of them appear to have the wide slot that opens to the back of the ring. These are the ones I'm familiar with. Others look like they have small oval holes that I've seen on aftermarket rings. Are there any dents or big scratches? Thanks.

Dan - yes they are the same 4 rings in each photo just different angle and front and backs. I will look at these closer today and see if there are any dents and scratches, don't remember seeing any but will check. I have other rings and I will look through them to see what else is there. Jay

**Clatterville trolley** · 05-01-2020, 09:56 PM

Ok, went through rings I had on hand again and now have 4 that match with the notch you said you wanted (hope I understood you correctly). I took more pictures - they are all the same 4 rings not multiple rings / multiple pictures. All tabs are there, no dents, no scratches, really nice looking rings. Let me know what you think.
