Re: 29 Headlight Jewels

BTW is there a passage or opening in the reflector for the light from the headlight bulb to get to the jewel?

Was the intent of the jewel to show the driver when a headlight bulb had burned out, or are they purely cosmetic?


Some non-original headlight jewels, the shade is made to fit into the gap between the headlight lens and lens retainer:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1930-40-50s-CAR-HEADLIGHT-DEFLECTORS-W-JEWELS-NOS-GREY-/260643050883
