Headlamp doors(bezels)

Post by Bluecollar comet »

Hello comet fans
Recently bought 1962 comet with grill but no headlamp doors. I bought a set of four on ebay but they dont seem to fit. They have outside mounting tabs that receive screws. They fit the lamp fine but dont mesh with the grill openings. I saw others for sale on ebay that have "inline" mounting screw holes. Do i have the wrong ones for 1962? Or am i just unable to see how they go together? Any help much sppreciated. Thank you!

13064 looks like the part number i need. Im trying to post a pic of the grill but a bit much for old school guy. I dont have the smaller trim rings either but i saw them in a catalog. Thanks for the reply

62's are different from 63's. The 62's are more flat and uniform looking. If you can't find them, I may have a set. I'll have to look and see if I still have them. They're just driver quality if I do. Text me 610-248-3257. Mark
