I hope you have better luck than I had as looked for eleven years before I found what is in the upper portion of photo, the center pics were found on the web, the new one is the one I made for my Ellgin Miss America ( the one you show photo of). I made internals to use LED bulbs and a rectangular 9v battery. Good luck and let me know how it comes out!

Nice to meet you! You have a very nice bike and what got me hooked on a Miss America. I have looked at your pics quite often. I just bought a original paint bike in decent shape that I am restoring for my wife. That's very helpful now I see how the lens attaches and functions. Where did you find the non screw on type lens? Here's my email [email protected] Thanks Tom

Mike Burden, Lima Ohio made the lens that I used. It was a screw-on type of the correct outside appearance. I had to cut the threads out by hand and then cut slots for locking tabs. I did not like the looks of the small screws that held the bulb housing but that is the way that the factory did it! I then made the Blue Dot to make it "Authentic". Search Mike Burden here on the C A B E and I think you can locate him. Go back over my long post as I have even photos of how I made the LED/9V internals. Enjoy!
