Mid production Tiger headlamp

Hey

I'm currently building Tamiya's 1/32 mid production Tiger tank. There is a head lamp positioned at the front of the hull in the middle. My question is that of the electrical connect to the lamp. Does anyone know if this is an external lead going to the lamp or is it internal (out of view) ?

I was going to replicate this if it can be seen with fuse wire.

Any help in this would be great. Seeing as I have put a hornet head, made the zim and used the Eduard etch set I may as well add some of the other small details

There was an external lead ending just to the hull gunners side of the roof ventilator. As here from the excellent Achtung Panzer book

Even though it's a few years old it's still a cracking reference if you want to build several Tigers, got mine in a BM For Sale thread.

Hey

Thanks for the information, that shows it perfectly. Who is the book by? Any chance you could post an image of the front cover?
