More web searching taught me a few things. The very earliest Tigers had the old square type convoy lights with four rectangular openings. Pictures of the captured Tiger 101 shows no light at all but may have been removed. I’ll have to scratch build for sure and use a small LED or something to make it light up. I’ll hook it up to the headlight wires. I’ve also read that contrary to popular belief the lights were not blue but more of a greenish color. Thanks for all the input.

Like this. The bottom flap lifts up revealing a red light and an orange light.

One more pic. I promise.

Mr Jimster, look what I found (half way down the page), although it looks like a 1/6th scale. Look familiar

Well, I’ll be damned! I must be on the right track with this build.

One would think you've seen that before

Wish I had. Would’ve made life easier.

I must have worded my search differently to you

I guess it was a cool find

Funny thing about the number 101. I didn’t want to represent #100 because it was captured so early in the war. The only 1/16 early decal set I could find was for the 100 so I ordered two sets to make the number 101. I wonder if this fellow did the same thing?

Maybe you'll find some answers here.
