I found the following lights in a recent parts stash purchase. They look to be Spotlights. Are they for any particular air-cooled or other German old car? Unfortunately there are no chrome bezels.The diameter is 17cm.

On the lens it says "importe d'allemagne". Maybe a French connection?

Looks to be head lights with the park light placement

The "301...." number looks to be type 3 or KG.

Just thinking aloud..........

Have no clue

Aha! Thanks Calooker. Mystery solved. I don't see a KG in my future, so I'll pass it on to someone who might need it.
