Dexta headlights

Post by ncfcdexta »

Hello again

Do original Dexta headlight lenses have any markings or brandings on them at all?

Thanks for your help.

I've got a couple of original lenses sitting on the bench. Will get a picture in the next few days.

My head lamp lenses have MADE IN ENGLAND cast into the glass around the bottom.

Hi Ncfcdexta
The original head lights on the dexta were Butlers and have( Butlers ) on the top of the lens.
If you require reflectors Vapromatic repros are the correct size and the original butlers can be siliconed in.
Cheers Lanfair.

Hi guys

Thanks for this, my headlights have a tractor image in the centre so are clearly the wrong ones!

I will scour the net for a set of original lenses if I can find them.

Thanks and regards,
