Hi Lynn,

Im very new to carriers so on a major learnig curve. I have Wolseley and Sentinel Wagon carriers. I do have a few headlights and a pair painted black on the inside lower part as you described. I also have a pair of lights with that glass you also described, like old bathroom smoked glass so I have something to copy from now.

Having trouble uploading pictures

Hi Mark

I thought Andrew Rowe and I had answered your headlight questions on HMVF?

An easy option would be to paint the outside of the glass. This was often done and any texture or ribs would only be on the inside and if painted nobody would know.

Lynn pretty much answers your question.

Ben

Hi Ben,

Thanks for the info from yourself and Andrew regarding the actual lights on the carriers on HMVF, it was most helpful.

I did however need the description of the glass for the Mk1. I now have a good idea thanks to Lynn, as its similar to the other lights I have.

Mark........
