chrome bezel

[geni]

on the Elan, the "luminous block" headlight is fitted with a clipped "chrome bezel" (often missing)!
Whether it has its origin, I am thinking of an Austin Mini Classic! But which one to choose since there are different models if you can enlighten me. Would be a +

I may have a couple of spares though you’d have to wait until I can access them.

Luminous block headlight. What on earth is that?

Sealed beam?

I'm trying to find out the origin of the "Headlight rims (outer) around" Light Unit "Maybe Austin MINI Classic? But different models of rims exist So which one to choose to match the Elan!

I used a Mini one, though its a bit thinner. Guess that adds lightness!

I think it's the same as an MGB Bezel........

That's the problem with Auto Translate makes you laugh
When i worked as Tech English Teacher here in France it was always a battle to stop the Students using Auto Translate.
We used to laugh a lot at the results and shake our heads.
Great fun.

The correct bezel has a spring clip at the bottom to hold it in place. The workshop manual shows a tool which can easily be made for pulling it off.
Other versions for other cars use a screw fitted upwards from below which is not easily accessible on the Elan.
I bought the correct type from Sue Miller
