I've got a set of MGB headlamp assemblies I'm restoring for another project. I don't know what year they're from, and I need a set of outer trim rings. Looking for advise on who to get these from, differences in quality vs. price, and availability.
Thanks!

We get pretty much everything for the MG through Moss Motors:

Thanks for the reply Scott. I'm familiar with Moss Motors, they seem to be one of the major MG parts/restoration outfits.

Know anything about the differences between the headlight trim rings? Apparently there are different versions for different years? My originals are just "slightly" magnetic - like they are a magnetic stainless (and not like regular steel at all). They have some surface dullness on the upper surfaces that I can't get polished out, so was looking for replacements.

Worth it to get the plated brass versions? I want a quality replacement.

Thanks,
Jeff

A lot of ss guns are magnetic, it's easier to form and is easier to machine.

Interesting thing about MGB restoration. You can buy the entire new body from Heritage Motors in England. They still make 'em...
