Default 63 headlight question

Will a 61/62 style headlight assembly work in a 63 fiberglass bucket without modification?
Thanks

I assume you're talking about the headlight bulb "holders" with the springs and adjustment screws ?
Can't say for sure, but I'd be real surprised if that worked...

Yes that is what I am asking about. I am still looking for 63's but I think I am going to try and see how the others might match up.

Thanks

441035 is the Corvette Central part number for the metal cup support plate you are talking about. It sure looks like the 63 unit for fiberglass buckets. I’m thinking it will either fit right out of the box or be easily adapted.

Perfect thanks for that information. I will give it a try.
