I am looking for a Bosch headlamp rim like the one in the photo to fit my 1923 Metallurgique. These lights were used on a few different brands of cars in the 20's.
They were made of aluminium in the early models and brass in the later ones. Either would do. The rim measures 220mm or 8-5/8 inches in the recess where the glass goes.

If you have one for sale or know where I might be able to get one please contact me as below. I will buy the complete light if that is necessary: davidfairbrother@bigpond.com

Thank you
David

Check out this guy who advertised a similar one on ebay. He shows pictures of shelves with "jumble" on them. Worth a try??

Thank you for the reply. It looks exactly like what I am looking for except I think it is a bigger size as he lists it at 270mm whereas the one I need is 220mm.
That said, I have sent him an email regarding it and if it is not correct he may know of or have a smaller one. ( I hope)

I will let you know how it goes but once again, thank you.

Special thanks to traction39 who helped me find a rim for my Bosch Headlight and I am very gratefull for his efforts. A spare one would be handy if anyone finds another. LOL
A great forum and great people.
