I have two glass spare headlight reflectors. They are both the same diameter, but one is thicker and heavier than the other. Since the headlights are John Brown, I would assume the lighter one would be what was used. I'm not willing to remove the reflectors from either one of my '13s to find out!

“Just because” - although I will never drive my T at night, it bothers my “brass snob purist” point of view that my Jno. Brown headlamps have metal repro reflectors. I honestly haven’t looked very hard to find a pair of glass ones. I did find a pair, but they are the wrong diameter . . .

Different thicknesses may mean different curvature of the lens. This makes focusing the lights different. My E and J headlights have this problem. It just means one burner is set further in advance of the other in the adjustment slots in the base. When you look square on at them in day light, the dark circle seen in the reflectors is larger on one than the other. No big deal.

The big deal is finding some, Allan.

I'm trying to help a friend who needs one.

I hear you Rich. I gave up trying to get a perfectly matched pair.
