headlight choice for Parabellum fairing

[quixotic]

I spent most of the day shoehorning a Parabellum fairing on to my bike.  For the most part, I'm really pleased with it.  Very sturdy construction, and on the highway, it keeps the buffeting to a minimum.

However, my old 7" headlight is obviously a tad too small.  Looks like a 7.5" unit would fit the fairing quite snugly.  So I'm wondering if there is a replacement unit which would work well with my set-up.  I'm not too worried about the spacing of the brackets coming out from the forks, since I've had to get creative with them already.

Thanks in advance.

7-inch v 7.5-inch diameters. That will give you a 0.25-inch gap around the headlight rim.

Personally, before spending some bucks for a maybe fits-maybe not headlight and bucket, then trying to fit the larger bucket twix the narrower ears...

Why not check out an auto body supply store and see what might be available as far as a shaped strip of weatherseal or similar. After attaching the trim to your fairing, the seven incher may be, as Goldilocks says, just right.

Thanks Monte.  I'm not really worried about fitting the unit between the "ears" since I've already had to make some extensions to go out past the ears (even with my earlier airtech fairing).  And with spacers, I can fit just about anything between the jerry-rigged brackets.  

I'm finding a LOT of headlight buckets and lights on ebay for R80's and R100's, and I've just inquired from one of the sellers as to what the diameter is.  The hole in the parabellum is actually 8" (the weather seal brings it down to 7.5").
