Default Found MkI carrier

Hello I am new here. I just found and bought a MkI carrier. It will be delivered in May. Hull is not bad, suspension, wheels all there, though the interior is pretty much gutted.

Manuals are on the way but I have a few questions I hope can be answered before then. I want to figure out what things I will need to keep an eye out for.

What Diameter are the headlights. Was there running lights on these?

Can someone identify instrument panel function? Mine is pretty rough.

I am assuming the guages are pre war ford? All are round, 2 are Large Diameter the rest smaller but all completely rusted or smashed.
I can identify the speedometer from the odometer and trip meter. What are the others? Does it matter where they are installed on the panels?

There is a big pushbutton ???? At the bottom of center panel. Ignition?
one toggle switch marked "side" Headlights?
one toggle switch marked "tail" Tail lights?

Would the guages be black face or white?

A photo would be great if you have one?

Now colour. Is the inside of the carrier painted the same as the exterior

Thanks in advance.
