Oop's so he did...! Well then i gotta disagree with the learned gentleman. Them 'ol blue eyes, not to mention clear eyes and black eyes made the nasty buisness of lamping hares, on Altcar estate, much more fun... And certainly cut down on car and motorbike crime! ;)

The first lamp I had was off a Morris Oxford the spot had a chrome nipple in the middle of the glass and the bulb was elongated and fitted right up to the centre of the chrome nipple. That lasted year

Started with one of them cheap Lucas lamps of some description then got a spotlight fitted with a door bell switch which was a great idea instead of snapping off lever switches every ten minutes then eventually got the blue eye. I had forgotten what it was called until I saw this thread just remember it being blue and shiny at the time and very handy in the big fields compared to the others
