Anyone who may have a pic of how and where the rod to the spotlight goes through the body?

spotlights may not be that popular on these cars anymore.  personally i think it would detract from the elegance of the car by the addition of spotlights.  elvis'  55 fleetwood has or had spotlights at one time.  you may be able to find pictures of it and its spotlights.   personally i wouldnt have them on mine, but thats personal preference.

Spotlights are normally mounted on the A pillar. I've never seen one that protruded through the dash. The control handle is normally above the dash on the A pillar. Go look at a cop car - you'll see what I'm talking about.

Well whadaya know? That's weird looking.

Cars with a straight A-pillar,the light shaft went through the pillar,however,cars from 55 and up,the shaft came through the dash.It was kind of hard to mount real spots on or through a wrap-around windshield.

Yes that makes sense. After looking at the picture, I see why that is. Obviously I don't have one on my '56. Weird seeing the knobs protruding from the face of the dash.
