Were spot lights available for 41-46 trucks as a Chevrolet accessory? If so, what was the brand and model used?

The accessory #985774 Safetylight was sold in 1941. The mounting brackes were available for left side mounting on a car #985777 or #985450 for a truck. No right bracket is listed. The lamp was made by Unity and not to be confused with the reproduction Unity light sold today.
The lamp is pictured in the 1941 Accessory brochure - did you order yours from the Filling Station?

I did order the brochure but it hasn't had time to come yet.
Any suggestions for identifying that model from the other Unity models? Was #985774 GM's number for it? Spotlights I've seen usually have short model names such as S-6.
