Hi,

does anybody have a late twenties Villiers headlamp with the broad stepped rim for sale ? Pics, documents and data would also be helpful for information...

Best regards.

I have one but I'm afraid I don't want to part with it - I have just put it onto my Rex Acme. If I can help with any info, no problem. They are a very hard to find part unfortunately - I have never seen another one for sale.

Cheers Rick

Hi Rick,

thanks for your reply! All pics and info are welcome - especially about size (overall diameter...) and types (fixing points...). I have seen one on a Coventry Eagle with a lighting switch integrated, though the one I am looking for is without the lighting switch.I've bought one on Ebay, but it's barely 5" ... slightly too small for my bike.

best regards
