You probably already found one. I would use some super glue to fix yours. I do have a uncracked one |

Before I get ahead of myself. Is this really a plastic H2 headlight bucket. The inside number was different than another one I saw. This may be a S3??

Yes mine has a 1 inch crack and figured I'd look for one first before trying to repair. Finding one along with price is the factor for buying one. Thanks |

I have a plastic one on my late 72. I'm planning on taking it off and using a correct steel one. Need to see if I have the correct trim ring for the later bucket. I have 2 early trim rings, one is NOS but it's pitted from years of improper storage. My early plastic bucket will be for sale if I swap them out and I will post here. |

I have a perfect later 72 bucket getting powder coated now just for the heck of it. I called California triples who said he had a perfect plastic one for $85 so I bought it. A week later I opened the box to find a perfect metal one with a note saying "After further review I don't have a plastic headlight bucket only this metal one" At first I was pissed but then I figured lesson learned...never again Cal Trip.  A plastic H2 NOS bucket in it's package was on ebay by seller Millanbike last month starting at $100. Someone contacted him asap and bought it for $250 I found it late after checking past sales on ebay. I used Tenax-7R plastic welder on my 1" crack and it seems to work ok so far.
