Road/24H headlight

[veloduke]

The reflector has had it on my Road 250 headlight, so if anyone has a spare they could part with I'd be most grateful.
I would buy the whole headlight if necessary. It's possible to get the original re-silvered, but I'm not sure of the quality of any repair like that.
It may be that I have no choice but to find out!

Hi Max,

I had my reflector re-silvered by S & T Yate, they did an excellent job.

Thanks Bob

Funnily enough I dropped off the whole headlight assembly (minus glass) at S&T's last week, as several people on Fakebook said they had one, then stopped communicating, so I went for refurbishment of what I have.

Bit of rust, some damage to repair, they will nickel plate the reflector.
The headlamp shell's mounting points are riveted in, so they have to be removed and refitted after plating.
So repairing/replating the reflector, shell, rim + bracket and mounting bolts.....£250
But they have to repair, polish, and triple plate so a lot of time.
4 to 6 weeks, that'll soon go.
