Hey All, I'm working on a pair of Afterlife Goggles for my son. He's 16 and we are both huge gbfans! I've identified quite a few parts on the goggles already but I'm having trouble with one part in particular. The silver piece on the lens plate between the lenses. It's small and round, domed with concentric circles on it. It looks so familiar but I'm having trouble figuring it out.
As soon as my frame gets here, I will start a thread documenting the build and all the parts used. Hopefully someone here can help with this part. Thanks in advance!

The concentric circles make me think it might be a lens of some sort. Someone took some better photos of them on display recently, but it's not very clear on those either unfortunately

A light cover was my immediate thought as well.

They're on Facebook in The Ghostbusters Reference Library group, someone posted them up a week or so ago.

Thanks for the heads up on those photos! they helped a lot. I'm pretty sure they are led lens covers and are Transparent not silver/chrome as i was thinking. I ordered some that should be here soon. Thanks for the help!
