[Mgs] Should I Tell Them?

[Paul Hunt]

Many square-rigger MGs had them as well.  They were just a 12v supply that 
could be used to power anything you wanted, as you say like cigar lighter 
sockets are now.  My Dad used them for a little parking light that clipped 
onto the top of the wind-down window, with a white lens to the front and a 
red to the rear.
