Trying to identify headlight

[LOUD MOUSE]

My HONDA parts list (263 pages, 1972) for the C/CA bikes shows the CA did get the seal beam.
The C72/77 shows 2 bulbs, both replaceable.
No mention of CANADA but does mention Germany, England, Switzerland and France plus another sheet for "Used in General" showing the same parts.
My 1962 CL72 came with a (one) replaceable bulb and A feller in AUSTRALIA has a CB72 with 2 replaceable bulbs as he destroyed his and I sent one I had to him.
Years back DIXIE INT. had several DREAM headlight t assy. which are the same as the C issue and I bought and sold them to owners in several countries. ..............lm

The more I learn about these bikes and research about this headlamp, the more convinced I am that this was OEM for Canadian designated Dreams. Every Canadian bike I am aware of has this headlamp. Remember this when proclaiming that sealed beams were OEM. They certainly were...for the U.S. market. ;-)

Like LM, My '64 Parts Manual shows 3 different headlights for the C/CA/CS 72/77, too.

It shows the sealed beam for US like LM's. Headlights 1 and 3 both use changeable headlight bulb (Stanley A5676) but the other parts are different. The bulb is held in by a rubber grommet in #1 and by a single spring clip in #3.

But, the two spring clips pictured in SSAMBUD's first post for this thread don't look like anything I see in the parts diagrams. Interesting that ELJEEF believes this was standard Honda issue for Canadian bikes. Apparently there is a 4th Headlight setup? Anybody have a Honda parts diagram showing that configuration and part numbers?

I have a Canadian 1966 CA78 and it has the replaceable parking bulb and headlight bulb with the rubber grommet and a single spring clip that you squeeze with two fingers to release the bulb.

Well now here are the headlamps from the two C78's that I have. The older bike C78 1000088 has the dual locking springclip. The newer bike C78 1001462 has the single clip that is squeezed and holds the bulb in. What's the concensus? One OEM and one not? Both not? Curious.

Do either of them have "Stanley" anywhere on them?

Do either of them have "Stanley" anywhere on them?

The one on the right with the squeezable spring clip has Stanley stamped on the back. The other one is too rusted to tell. I did pull a Toshiba bulb out of the one on the left for whatever that's worth.
