So would the orange Mad Max van have had one of these twin headlight nosecones with a Mercedes headlight stuck in there somehow?

Not sure Laurie. I fitted GXL square lights to one we put on my mates van back in the 80s without having to modify the panel. 3d16ba0349b40704543747240b73a57a.jpg

Must say that looks a bit nicer than the WB rectangular setup with the sloped top.

Yes I think so as well, the remnants of mine are already behind the shed and will probably be used for panel repair steel !!

Not much to report, I have just been chipping away at welding in the new floor sections. I have realised that I really need to get hold of a rotisserie and lift the body off the chassis so I can weld and grind both sides of the panel. Got my new hoist installed as well.
