Default need help on my markings.....

Hi,

Browsed a lot of period photos today to find how my C8 markings should be arranged. Decided that the 7th Armoured Division would be my choice,(after all, what's a desert truck without a desert rat on it).

Was wondering which placement was most common for the markings:

No.1 shows the division and unit markings combined on the tac sign/pass plate on the left...same as #2 photo,(I like those helmets over the headlights).

No.3 shows the division and unit signs separated, and on each fender.

No. 4 photo shows the combined division/unit markings have migrated to the right fender.

Help!

EDIT: Thinking about the 11th Hussars,(Prince Albert's Own), for my truck. Was always fascinated by the images of those early armoured cars patrolling the desert. Found their excellent war diary today here at http://www.warlinks.com/armour/11_hussars/.

Anything technically wrong with that choice or in the placement of the markings? The sign was just added to the photo using the paint program, so if not correct....

Thanks, David
