RE: the bezel

Paint code and color information...

forum.ih8mud.com

Some bezels were different depending on the body. Spring greens got a tannish one.
Or maybe it is here:

FJ40 Roof OEM Color Code ?

forum.ih8mud.com

Thanks for these links.
I know it's not the best light but what do you think of the Color of mine?

 

[HelloKitty65]

I like it.
Advantages: You can show off splattered mud with that color, and bird poop will hardly show.
If you try a white bezel, you can change it back if you think you missed.

Found this Dulux Paints Chart on eBay recently. Circa early 1960's Toyota.
I bought this for the White Samples and Codes.

I'm thinking 'Alpine White' for the Bezel?

 

[andybudge]

'Pearl White' for the Bezel Color?

I thought that this Color would be best, given common opinion that the early 1960's Bezel White has a Grey tint.

For comparison. 1962 bezel with paint sample of lily white (which is my body color).

Andy, please check if they had distinct LHD and RHD patterns on these headlamps back then to comply country specific regulations? If they did then US folks won’t be off much help.

The later Koito sealed beam headlights were put on other Japanese vehicles. I find them on Subarus, Corollas and such. Maybe yours were put on other early Japanese vehicles and a search there will turn some up.

You are right. They were used on other Vehicles.

Part # 81110-60010 is the Part to suit RHD.
Thanks Archie!
