Ok,  since things are slow,
My euro rings are 311 941 111

Since they are  not SB12  what SB are they??



They're not an SB. They are standard parts (for Europe).
The parts book calls them out as either 311 941 039 E, or 312 941 039 E  
(headlamp, asymmetrical, left or right hand traffic only Bosch), or 311 941 
039  F, or 311 941 039 D Hella version (M 187). These assemblies include the  
following, outer ring (with 3 screws (2 adjusting)), sealing ring (like an 
"O"  ring), glass lense (for either right or left hand traffic), adjuster 
ring,  reflector, and bulb holder (without bulb). Basically just the ring is 
part  number 311 941 111 (#18 in the parts book), and you still need ALL of 
the other  parts listed above to complete the assembly (1), plus the light 
bulbs and other  hardware like the locking clips to attach the reflector to the 
adjuster ring,  tabs for the adjusters, and the plastic spacers for both 
the adjusters (on the  outer ring), and the fender attaching screw.
 
Your best bet IF you want to return your car to using this style of  
headlight, is to contact the 1500 Club, and see IF someone has a pair of  
assemblies they'll sell you (won't be cheap either). I hope this helps.
