This has turned into a very interesting thread! I have collected some photos in an effort to create some sort of a "headlamp timeline":
Ram II with stirrup mounts and bucket headlamps on the three-piece final drive housing: Ram cruiser 001 mk2 early.jpg Sexton I with stirrup mounts and bucket headlamps on the three-piece final drive housing. Note the style of the guards. sexton 1.jpg Sexton II with stirrup mounts and bucket headlamps on the one-piece final drive housing. This one has the style of guards as on your Shop No. 1164. Sexton 1st Polish Armoured Division during the Battle of Falaise Pocket.jpg Sexton II with US socket headlamps mounted high up on the glacis plate: Sexton 2 test Montreal 1943.jpg As Adrian pointed out, the Butler/ Lucas headlamps with their mounting was a post-war British modification. As they do not look totally out of place and are part of this Sexton's history, you may well decide to keep them.
