Wanted DU42 Headlamp Reflector

Post by ClintR »

Hello:
Searching for a used DU42 headlamp reflector for the bulb holder type that mounts on the back with attaching wire spring: Pt Nr 515140 + 516145, to use with a blackout mask. Does not matter much the condition of the silvering of the reflector.

515140 is a light unit or reflector for the DU142 or 8". 516145 is the one you want, the modern Indian replacements are a complete light unit, ie reflector, glass and bulb holders but do not seem to be available at the moment.

Roger:
Thanks; I thought it was the 517145 unit, but I found a site that listed as 515140+516145; I did not what that + sign meant, so I included it in my forum request😊.
