Models replacing sealed beam

Electrical problem
1994 Other Nissan Models 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic 200k miles

I am trying to replace a sealed beam (front headlight) on my 1984 Nissan Patrol Ti. I am finding it impossible to refit the circular chrome surround that holds the sealed beam firmly in place. Is there a simple way to fit this surround. It fits around the edge of the sealed beam and attaches with 3 small screws.

Hi there,

Make sure that the light is sitting in the housing correctly, there are locating lugs, the chrome ring will only fit on one way, try rotating it till the holes re align, see ho w you get on, this should not be a huge problem.
