pdf
17940 ONE BULB HEADLIGHT REFLECTOR [PDF] New tooling made from the original Ford prints. We have corrected the location of the center socket by moving it 1/16" off center, and increasing the depth of the overall reflector to allow you to correctly focus your headlights per the Ford service Bulletins. The word Top is stamped on the back of the gasket grove so you install the reflector correctly. The new reflector is aluminum plated, polished and sealed from the air. The aluminum finish has the same 92% reflection as the original silver plating, but silver will tarnish in a few months and your reflection will be reduced. The reflectivity of the cheap chrome reflectors is 65%. Minimum industry standard for headlight reflectors is 80%. These facts are from the Skinned Knuckles Aug. 1984. Clean using a CLEAN SOFT COTTON CLOTH with MILD SOAP AND WARM WATER. This is the same finish as modern sealed beam lights. Used 1928-31.
