m43 spotlight question

[billyzz]

will just a regular old spotlight install /work the same as the original light on my ambulance?

If you aren't going for a gold star restoration, I would say any old light will work. They didn't change a whole lot from year to year. I have seen 50's models on Ebay. Trouble with them is the bakelite handles are not always the best.

The original spotlight for the M-43 were made by "Guide" but "Unity" looks just the same ( better handle ) and still come up on E-bay now and then ( mostly then ). (pic is Unity in my deuce )

John @ Midwest Military had the correct ones in stock last time I talked to him.
