[kcstreetracer]

what holds the headlight to the buckets? i am putting a truck together from scratch, and have no experience with these trucks. i have new buckets and halo lights from lmc. is there something im missing here? what attaches the light to the bucket?

Stainless ring around the bulb, 3 tabs with 3 small screws hold it to the bucket.

A stainless steel ring fits around the rim of the headlight bulb. The bulb and ring are attached to the bucket with 3 small screws.. The bucket is held against the core support by the two aiming adjusters and a short but strong spring.....

The ring is common to all "two light" vehicles regardless of year and/or make.. I'd venture a guess and say all the pieces can be had at your local U-pull it. Here's everything you need on one page.. https://www.classicparts.com/Headlamps/products/282/
