 Dyane Headlight Bezel
Hi All, Been a long time, and nice to be back on this forum!
I recently ordered two plastic Headlight bezels from Paris for my Dyane. Mine is a 1973 model with metal rims. The fitting seems different. Can they be used, and if they cannot, with any minor modifications?
Thanks!
Regards,
Steve

 Re: Dyane Headlight Bezel
Steve, unfortunately, the two types are not interchangeable. The only way I can think of to fit the chromed plastic type to the older setup would be to use a couple of long self-tapping screws. I used to do this with our Dyanes when I lived in the big bad city ( Leeds  ) and the local pests' idea of fun was to unclip the bezels, then either put them in front of the wheels or use them as frisbees...

 Re: Dyane Headlight Bezel
Would a photo or two of the bezel fitting help?
