I have these two lights that are available, not quite sure what they are, someone wanted them then found others, very good deal for the right person do they suit your needs?

The one I’m selling is now sold and is wartime, I’ve attached a pic of an identical one I have which is dated 1945 and has braided screw on cable.

I would assume that the braded steel cable ones came in near the end of the war.

The standard vehicle pattern without the window and convoy light pattern just has wires pushed into the back. Clearly in this use the cables would not last long.
