Re: HEAD LIGHT REASSEMBLY & REFURB

Both reflectors have the gasket groove and both can be eased into either bucket, but cannot be turned , which in turn prevents them passing the second set of indents as indicated on one of my noted pics. One Reflector is marginally greater diameter then the other (220mm dia & 221mm dia) I have attac...

Re: HEAD LIGHT REASSEMBLY & REFURB

Mick, Having studied your pictures of the reflector in the bucket and the note saying 'Indent', and tried the installation, I find the lens sits on the four indents (see attached pics) and cannot be turned to miss the indents you indicate on your post, which in turn means the external button release...
