Actually, this has gotten a little off track. I HAVE the original Sonett auxiliary headlamp buckets but they are missing the retaining ring (thin stamped metal round ring with three screw holes spaced equally around the perimeter). The Sonett lamp buckets I have are an exact fit into the grille, so there is no need to get an entire lamp assembly. I've found a few places selling ones to fit Mercedes, Jaguar, Etc, but the price for the retaining ring alone is insane. I'm hoping to track down some used junk yard ones at reasonable prices. The lamp buckets I have are old and not nos quality, so it seems foolish to spend $100-$200 for a couple retaining rings. If I can't find ones to fit, I'll probably just buy an extra Dorman one and cut and re-weld the mounting tabs to fit.
