    Hello all, I would like to know is the Tilley R1 wire guard the same dimensions as the Tilley R55 wire guard?
    Thanks

    @podbros, yes I understand it's a bigger reflector, but will a R1 wire guard fit a R55?

    @Anthony, thanks so is this a Tilley R1 or a R55 wire guard?
    Obviously it's on a R55 heater thanks.

    The reflector was already bent due to shipping damage.
