The smaller, metal, pattern side lights (tail lights etc) often show up, presumably repros, on ebay as being suited to Harley Davidson WLCs.
Links seen today (I serched for "harley-davidson WLC light") - sorry for the long URLs...:

Yes Bruce those are the ones. Is there a proper name for them?

I'm sure there is but I usually just call them early CMP headlamp pots as they are used on 11/12 cab CMPs and a larger number of Canadian armoured vehicles. The variation used on vehicles like Mk.1 carriers are identical except for brackets on the sides for posts instead of the fitting for the nut on the bottom.

I had listed these for sale and they actually look better in person than in the pics. They don't have the mirror reflector that takes the headlamp and marker lamp bulbs.

I believe those Cdn style headlights are actually slightly economized Ford tractor headlamps form the 1920s/30s. I have one out in the shed that is extremely close to the CMP headlamp, with the exception of a little more ornate retaining ring.

Hi Rob, do you still have these lights for sale or have they gone to a new home?

I message Brian, but unfortunately it seems he only has the Carrier type.

Cheers,

Tom

Grant: You should warn people to be sitting down when they open those links. Those prices are unreal.

[chris vickery]

Unreal and almost criminal.
The collector world has lost their collective minds.
One day soon, this stuff is literally worth nothing…
