mechanical arm
Quite a few LHD civilian registered WW2 Jeeps here had a mechanical arm fitted across the windscreen where the riflle bucket would be . I had a Jeep with one fitted, some of them were quite fancy with a lever that moved the hand up and down for displaying the STOP sign, or alternatively, the RIGHT turn signal with the hand horizontal . The hand was normally a bit of tin cut out in the shape of a hand . I think the army here might have used them post war as well, but not sure .
