Headlight ears

Will GT380 headlight ears and headlight assembly work on a GT550? I ask because I bought a set on Ebay, but they're definitely for a 380 and not my 550. I want to know if I have to send them back.

Thanks,

Joe

The 380 forks are smaller, @33mm dia. The 550 being 35mm. The 380 also has a smaller headlight than the 550, which has the same one as the 750. The 380 ears also have the signal mount stub built in, accommodating different signals than the 550, or 750. The earlier ones did have the mount hole for GT signals, but the part numbers are different, so they are not interchangeable, most likely due to the fork diameter difference. Hope this helps a bit. Cheers.

Thanks! If I can work out a trade with the previous reply, so be it, otherwise they go back to the guy on Ebay as he said they were 550 ears.
