03/30/2025 I can also offer to print this model for you and ship it. $25 including shipping in the USA (lower 48).
03/26/3025 I made a YouTube video about the adapter ring and it's use.

03/21/2025 I just uploaded a slightly improved version with larger chamfers: Version 2.0
Please download that one!
I created an adapter ring to be able to install a widely used 7 inch headlight into the headlight bucket of a vintage BMW Airhead.
The headlight bucket was in use from 1974 starting with the /6 all the way up to 1995 with the last R100.
the Adapter allows the install of the 7 inch headlight without modification to the Chrome ring or the headlight bucket.
Slight modifications of the model might be necessary due to the large variety of 7 inch headlights on the market. The one seen in the picture is a Philips brand LED headlight adapted to the headlight assembly of a 1974 R90/6.

I recommend to print in TPU (I used TPU 95A in black) to give the adapter ring some flexibility and ability to conform to the chrome ring.
I recommend to print with 5 walls, 5 top and 5 bottom layers, 25% Infill should be sufficient.
Let me know if you have any questions.
