Ok. I’m confused. I’ve got some new indian beauty rings. Some new wings from Taiwan. Some chunky plastic circles that may or may not be part of the solution. 

I’ve heard tell of asymmetric headlamp rings and evenly spaced ones. 

I cannot figure out how any of the bits may or may not fit together. Does anyone have a diagram / photo?

I’m minded to buy a set of these.

Thoughts? Might need spacing for depth but at least I’d have all the bits.

So our SJ413 (1986) came with 3 point fixings spaced like a letter Y on its side, our new cheap samurai came with the point fixings equally spaced, I believe that the Samurai ones have an additional bowl that fixes to the points whilst in the original SJ413 the headlamps fit direct to the mounting points

Thanks Martin, I’ve ordered a set of standard bowls for a mini etc. I’ll fabricate some mounts. At least I’ll know the bits are meant to be together even if not on this car.
Once I have that I can set the grill and then adjust the wings to fit…

I am a bit concerned for the cooling in the bowls if hot halogene bulbs are used..
I tried to put Golf II headlights on my SJ but even though they where 7" they did not fit the Suzuki rings. My '84 got the uneven Y-type.
