Title: Murcielago OE style headlights
Post by: MDMurcy2 on June 01, 2020, 01:12:55 PM
I'm searching for the headlight buckets that are used with the OEM style lenses.  I only have the buckets that came attached to the body.  I've cut them from the body and have been using the regular plexiglass lenses that came with the body.  I  purchased the wrap around the edge lenses and wanted the housings that they fit on for a better seal and look.  Is anyone here making/ selling these?  Thanks.

FGP sells a pretty good set that required very little work, as they were not warped. They were better than the ones I bought from the guy in the UK. 

I have a complete set -  with one side from FGP and the other side is from the guy in the UK.

I actually purchased the lenses from them.  I didn't see the housings in thier list of items.  I did however reach out to them.... just havent gotten a response yet.  I was hoping for someone in the States.  Did the Watson molds have this item?  I know the body panels were spot on.  If they did.... is there someone I can contact to get more advice on finding these.?

FGP didnt list the headlight buckets on their website,  I had to ask them, Hopefully they still make them.

If not I could possibly dig out the pair that I have some where stored in my shop

I have 2 FGp headlight buckets and 1 FGP eyebrow and 1 UK eyebrow.

If you look at my build thread I had to add material to two sides of the eyebrow and all the work to get the UK buckets to work. :o  The UK eyebrow is too small. 

You can see the Bucket with the FGP plastic lens, and the space where the eye brow meets.

I just looked over some pictures and remember how the UK buckets were kinda messed up

Ok... I see.  Thanks for the pics.   Been checking out your build.  Excellent work.  I've been putting aside my build for quite some time because of work and some family issues.  I recently have gotten back into the build and look forward to posting progress and definitely taking advice from the more experienced builders.  Thanks for your help.

I'll send you the info for the person that has molds for the OEM buckets.  Yes Watson used to have these until he sold his molds.  Mine came from him.
