I was very lucky and got these head lights from a friend.
But as can be seen they are missing a couple of pieces.

I need:
(1x) 2.728 C01Q 13099, Door Headlamp (5801410)
(2x) 2.727 01AF 13060 A, Lens Headlamp (1799069)
(2x) 2.735 C01Q 13066 Gasket, Headlamp lense (1799068)
(2x) 2.734 C01Q13011 B, Reflector Headlamp (overseas)
(2x) 2.750 5801279, Wiring assy., Headlamp (1799078)
(2x) 2.750 1841971, Wiring assy., Headlamp to junction block.

Do any one have these parts or direct me to one who has them?
What are the correct name/model for these headlights?

Cheers
Niels

When I see your picture,I think you have 2 headlights for the left side
of your vehicle and not 1 left side and 1 right side headlight.
The difference between the left and the right is the position of
the electrical plug.

That is not a big problem. You only have to remove the rivets and turn the mount 180degrees as the main body is already drilled for either left or right use. I found this out whilst agonizing over the fact that I had two left headlights. I was already to drill the new holes and removed the rivets and found that it was a very easy conversion.

Some repro parts available
 
MacAuto in Niagara N.Y. USA has the reflectors, bulbs, gasket and lens.

The hardest part to find is the small retainer ring...part 2.731.... which is very thin and extremely prone to rusting..... a lot of repro available made of SS BUT they are the wrong height....... the original is about 3/8 thick most what is sold is 3/4 to 1 inch.

They also have modern Halogen bulbs that will fit in the reflectors.

I have two retainer rings 2.731, not of identical design but similar hight.
one of the lights dosnt have a hole in the either side of the bottom but has one in the rear.
I will try to get in contact with MacAuto then.
