Just letting other members know I have placed a rare extremely fine original "Autoreelight" for sale on eBay. These came out very early in 20's and were fitted to many early 20's Chevy's FXXds and Dxxges. You may want to check it out as the ultimate early "aftermarket" accessory for your car. I think they may have been patented in late teens.

Very nice quality this light. Used on 490s from 1916, I believe.

To find it just go to eBay and type Autoreelight, and hit search. I expect there will only be one! These are very rare. As far as I know, this is the only one listed on eBay in past 2 years or more. They connect to electrical system, and have a spring loaded reel of wire which has about 12' plus of wire allowing the light to be disconnected from the bracket mounted reel and used like a regular service light, used to change any of the wheels in the dark for example.
