Does anyone have a picture or a diagram of the stock headlight bucket and parts that go in it. I have a black plastic headlight bucket the is suppose to go with the bike when I got it. I just got a headlight reflector, plug, h4 bulb and rubber cover for the plug in of fleabay for a reasonable price, but the bucket has no attachment points for the headlight assembly.

The headlight attaches to the outer trim ring, and that attaches to the bucket. Not exactly a diagram, but this will show how it mounts...

Trim Ring
Thank You Steve. It looks like I need the trim ring and I have everything else now. Anybody have one out there that is willing to sell? Hope this isn't one of those parts that is made from unobtainium.1979XS1100SF

maybe ebay
They do show up on ebay from time to time. not too pricey. doesn't qualify as unobtanium.
I have 1 but it's part of a whole light, & I think I should keep it together.
