1933 season SV headlamps

I'm trying to sort a pair of the correct headlamps for the McEvoy, which was laid down in May 1933.

This got me thinking about the headlamps fitted to the SV Minor, and also the 1932 season LWB OHC Minors.

The SWB OHC cars were fitted with Lucas R47B headlamps, with separate sidelamps.

Then we have the 1931 season SV Minors, including the Hundred Pound Minors which had integral sidelamp bulbs. At some point, a later model Lucas lamp was introduced which featured fluted glasses.

I plan to delve into the Lucas catalogues, Morris spares lists, etc. to try and come up with a definitive picture of what was fitted to which, so I would value anyone's feedback here. Thanks!
