Default M38A1 CDN2 - Blackout and Signal Lights

Could someone post pictures of their fender mounted turn signal lights and blackout light? I've seen a few different styles and am interested to find out what is correct for my 67-08045
Thanks,
Rick

No pics on hand right now but my 1970 CDN3 uses M151 lights for turn sigs on top of the front fenders.

The setup shown is proper for the Cdn2 and the Cdn3. Note that the guard on the BO headlamp is the solid steel type, and not the thinner stamped steel type used later on the M151A2s. Also note that the back of the BO Headlamp housing has the flat spot where the wire passes through. Earlier style BO headlamps were round backed.

The signal lamp is just a BO housing with the orange lens on it. The same lens was used on the early M548s here in Canada, and likely on many different vehicles in the US.
