Corsair landing light location, photographs?

[MeneMene]

Can anyone point me to a good photograph of the landing light (sometimes referred to as the "approach light") on the -1D Corsair wing leading edge? It should be on the left wing just inboard of the guns. The 1/48 Tamiya kit has the incorrect earlier circular landing light on the wing underside that I need to fill and replace with the above. The kit has a small rectangular panel that looks like it's in the right place but I'd like to confirm.

 

On a similar note, where was the gun camera window located? There appears to be another similar rectangular panel I can open up on the right side, so if that's supposed to be the gun camera I can open that up too while I'm at it, but I would like some confirmation.

 

Thanks

P.S, to previeous

Here it is visible on real thing

 

However, on late variants I cannot find it on left wing....

The approach light was located in the LH outer wing leading edge, inboard of the gun ports. The gun camera was located in the same location in the RH outer wing.

See the links below for more information.
