'54 Headlights
I suspect this has been asked and answered, but my limited search skills did not pull anything up. Is the headlight assembly the same for both the LH and RH like my truck, or are the Corvette's side-specific? Thanks for any advice.

There are several parts to the headlights
The slant backs are not side specific - those screw to the fiberglass with a gasket between the bucket and the body
The pot metal buckets are screwed to the headlight trim
That assembly then "hooks" into the slant back bucket with a single screw at the bottom - that screws into a c clip on the back side of the body.
The headlight and cups screw into the slant backs like passenger cars
