FS: Pair 5¾ in. Cibie headlight units

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   As per title a pair of Cibie 5¾ in. headlight units.

The glass is uncracked, the silvering looks good, and they have the bulb retaining springs and the rubber connection covers.

They should fit a Sprint/Crossbow twin headlamp fairing or any early series Quota.

Cannot say how they afix to anything as there are no obvious fitments for attaching them to anything. I seem to remember from my 1980s Crossbow days that there was a metal frame provided with the fairing, cannot speak for the Sprint installation. The Quota has a special plastic frame, which these would not fit, so you would have to make something for that

How about £60 posted but open to offers?

TIA

	Would these be the concave-glass Oscar units? I need a small-diameter pair of those for some headlamp shells I have, I need to find them and check the diameter...

	Thanks. I thought it was too lucky to find a pair in one go!
