How many different tags did Unity use on their genuine Chevrolet accessory spotlights.

I am aware of the "Chevrolet Sportlite" 1930-193(3?), The GM S1 Safetylight 1934-1936?, And the GM crown I call it

(Example from Filling Station)

How long was the "crown" used and what did Unity go to after? I know they still make spotlights

I have some early spotlight stuff, but I have never really studied up on it. I have a GM logo Sportlite. I was going to swap the shell with a Safetylite one, then realized it was not a GM badge. All these pieces look appropriately "toasty" to match my '36 truck. I'm not crazy about drilling holes, so I definitely will not do so unless I can find a GM Safetylite shell.
It is an interesting subject.
