Colin,

Further to Richard's remark, I have seen a square style of searchlight on Vickers light tanks, too. So, and alternative may be the post-war light as currently offered in Tim Vibert, see http://milweb.net/classifieds/view_l...ad=91660&cat=8

That could give you a period looking light, at least until you find a better one?

HTH,
Hanno
