lucas headlight glass
Does anybody know where I can look for glass for my Lucas headlight.I found this one on an old carrier in the swamp(only 1 bullet hole in it) but the other headlight was a standard Mk 1 headlight.I would eventually like to find another one and mount them on my carrier.When did they use the lucas headlight on carriers until they switched and started using the regular ones?Thanks,Derk.

Looks to me as if it is the CAV logo on top .
They usually had a plain lens with structure on the inside , If you need I can take a picture of one . That glas is still available in holland , you just have to cut it round. the Lucas version usually had a ribbed lens in it.

Headlight info.
Hi Maurice,
Yes the logo has a steering wheel with CAV inside the top section and below is BRITISH MADE.On the outside of the steering wheel emblem on top looks like the top of a Flaming torch and at the bottom of the steering wheel I am not sure what the stamping is supposed to represent.Maybe the bottom of the flaming torch? Paul, Thanks for the lead.I will contact him about the glass lens.I hope I can find another headlight assembly but will order 2 glass lens to have just in case. Thanks for the help,Derk.

Kevin,
I bought mine off of Brian Asbury a few years back at the Duluth Military vehicle convention.You can check with him to see if he still has any left in stock. Derk.
