Default Chevy headlamp outer ring

Hi all

I’m looking for a Chevy cab13 headlamp ring like the one pictured. I thought I had two but one is 1/4” smaller in diameter.

I’m looking for one that is approximately 8-1/2” diameter on the bottom edge from outside to outside of the folded rim. The mounting clip and screw hole are inline as well.

The one that doesnt work is approximately 8-1/4” diameter and has a steeper profile.

The first three pictures are what I’m looking for. The last two are comparing the two rings.

Standby until I get home from work and I will let you know what I ordered from Filling Station that seems to fit your description and resembles what I removed from a CMP...

There seem to be quite a few different diameters and profiles. To start with, I do NOT guarantee that the headlight bucket assembly shown is original CMP (but it came with my C15A) so it may be post-war and misleading. The larger diameter ring in photos was bought from Filling Station, their part SE-32E listed as fitting "1947-55 PU &49-52 car". (rubber seal sold separately) If it isn't obvious, in the photos, the reproduction part is the green one with wire clips.
