Another refererence to roof hatches being added while the trucks were in service was provided by Richard Farrant in Canvas-covered square roof hatch:

Quote:

No. 4 Base Workshops REME in the Middle East, based around Cairo, produced 38,700 observation hatches for B vehicles in the period between Jan 42 and Aug 44.

Going by the photographic evidence, these were of the canvas variety and added to all sorts of wheeled vehicles, ranging from trucks to staff cars - anything with a roof.
