Corvette Headlight Ring & Cup Set, 1960-63 on 2040-parts.com

Here's a nice used original headlight ring & cup set as installed on '60L-63 Corvettes.  The same part numbers were used for 1958-60E cars, but the tooling changed making the naked cups visually different.  Used originals that aren't badly rusted, scratched or dented are getting harder to find each day!

By part number, the set consists of four 5948828 SS lamp retaining rings and individual RH inner, RH outer, LH inner, LH outer lamp cups (also called 'rings' in GM parlance) with PN's 5948826, 5948824, 5948827, and 5948825 respectively.  You also get the ring to cup attaching screws.

The early version of the cups had discrete holes for the square glass bosses on the rear of the lamps to sit in.  Tooling changed to cost reduce the parts on later versions of the cup.  There, two 'slits' were cut into the cup and the steel was pressed back into a 'strap' that provided an alignment recess for the lamp bosses.

Exactly when the tooling change occurred is fuzzy.  And, it's possible the two different stamping tools ran side by side for a while creating a mixture of versions.

The four cups are distinguished by their R1, R2, L1 and L2 emboss identifiers which correspond to the above cup PN sequence.  You can also, think of the emboss as meaning: R1= RH single filament, R2= RH dual filament, Etc.
