1929 Chummy Headlights - Colin D Smith - 20-01-2025
Hi chaps,
I know this is a rather daft question,, here goes..
How does one take the headlight bezel off a 1929 chummy? Is it a twist, a pull. Help needed as I don't want to break anything...
Sorry its not any more interesting than that!
Many thanks,
Colin x

Hi Colin
Do your headlights mount on the scuttle or by the rediator and fromt wings? Do theyhave a wide bezel? If they do then it's a push back and turn to the left looking from the front. They are often quite stiff to turn but you will know you are on the right track if you can feel them go back when you push them back against the three spring loaded mounting pins.

Not a lame question- Lucas regularly changed headlight designs and the rims are often very tricky to remove
