330 headlight trim ring
somewhere on the road, I seem to have lost a chrome trim ring for the headlight on my 330 GTC. does anyone know if this might be a part that would be cheaper if it were to have come from another car, say an Alfa, etc? thanx steve meltzer

I think it should be a Carello. I noticed Paul Berber www.250swb has a box of them on his website of parts for sale. He might have one for your car. Not sure about an Alfa ring fitting..Good luck.

Matt, thanx for the info. Indeed, it is a Carrello. There's a little screw at the bottom of the ring, but not sure how one would get even a right angle screwdriver in there to secure it. thanx again. steve

Carello 330 GTC Headlight Bezel
Hi Steve,
Sorry to hear about your lost headlight ring. The hole at the bottom of the Carello bezel is a drain hole, not an attachment point. The ring is held on by three metal pressure clips, and it's impotant to really snap the ring into place firmly to make sure that it's engaged.
When locating a replacement, make sure that it is a 7 inch bezel, as I've bought 275 rings that are larger and don't fit.
Any questions,
