Cowl lights should be on the cowl, or on both sides of the gas tank between the doors and the hood, just below the seam. They should be small lights about 4" in diameter mounted on arms.

Re: Cowl Light ID?

Thanks Dave,
They belong to a friend. He has a pair of them and plans to use them as turn signals on his A. I think they're kind of neat looking and should make good turnn signals.
