Does anyone know if the 490 and Baby Grand are the same headlights? Does anyone have a set to fit my Baby Grand? Looking for a solid pair in about #3 condition that are reasonable. Thanks, Ron

Your first question:

The part numbers are different, therefore the assumption is that they are not the same/interchangeable.

The 490 headlight is smaller of the two models. It measures about 9" dia. and 5 1/2" deep. [ someone else will have to provide the measurement for the other one]

Hi again babe grand,

Unfortunately this is the best picture I can provide for the headlight on an FB.

This is from the PARTS LIST, MODEL FB, dtd March 15, 1921, page 92. Actually two headlights were used. Part number 40683 (headlight shown)is a double contact unit, part number 47477 was a single contact unit and is not illustrated.
