Customs Headlight bucket interchange 47 Ford car

I researched quite a while and it looks like 46 47 headlight buckets are different?
I'm needing headlight buckets rings etc.for a 47 sedan. What years will fit?

 

Can’t say that Ive ever seen them referenced as different, I guess the trim rings could be different but I’ve never noticed. They should interchange

 

Are they all fully closed on the back?
Is see some for sale but there s no closed bucket on the back

 

Yeah there’s bucket with a hole for the wires to p*** threw

 

Trim ring and actual light out with out the inner ring and looking inside the fender at the bucket you can see the wire exiting the bucket

 

Many different years use that bucket?

Thank you very much for the pictures!

 

I would think at least 42,46,47,48

 

1946 thru 1948 headlight buckets are the same. The trim rings are different, '42 and '46, 21A-13045 are the same and '47-'48, 6A-13045 are the same.

 

I think if you are having difficulty finding headlight buckets specifically for your Ford that it would be very easy to adapt ones from other cars since the 7" seal beam is universal in this era of car. The buckets all mount the same. You might have to drill a few new holes and that is about it. Customizers routinely french headlights with '52 and '53 Ford headlight doors to other makes.
