I have a 1951 CA that has been redone. I do not know where the headlights mount. If someone can show a picture that would be great.
thanks in advance

There should be a half inch or so hole in the hood and front shroud where they overlap, maybe 4 inches down from the top of the hood. The lights mount in these holes. Here is a picture of somebodies CA with lights.

There should be a hole on each side where the hood and the radiator shroud meet.  The lights have a mounting stud that fastens in the hole.

The holes thru hood and front shroud are oversized in that one spot to accept a light at each side.   Same setup as used on the B and C tractors.

The original lights have a wire that runs thru the center of the stud that mounts the light to the tractor. The 1/2 inch hole should be a threaded insert to screw the headlight into the radiator shrould. Cal in Ct.

Yep, the lights thread into the radiator shroud and there are a couple holes with rubber grommits in them for the wires to pass through.
