1956 Headlights Repo vs. Original

[Ken P.]

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me the difference between a reproduction headlight for a 1956 vs. an original? Thanks, Ken

Ken, for one thing I believe all repos will have a tiny DOT mark on them, but it's very hard to see. My 70's repo lights have the mark in the bottom left corner.

Thanks Pat - I'll look to see - eyes are getting bad! Cheers, Ken

Check out this previous thread in which I posted a pic of my DOT marking. As you can see, even the best eyes will have trouble seeing it!
