Post 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

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 :roll: ) 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...

Would a photo or two of the bezel fitting help?
