To finish the lighting chapter a bit, the position light (little "3rd" light) you see in the pics is a LED light. What you can't see in the pics is that it's extremely bright, because I tuned down the exposure on the camera to get a better picture.
The LED light I bought on ebay (UK this time I believe, but you'll find the everywhere) as a pair:

Installation is a simple plug and play operation, here you see the 4 LED's in the lamp in more detail:

Just unscrew the two screws on the lens, pull out the old bulb, plug in the new. Since it is not omnidirectional, the reflector won't be used anymore by the LED's (they shine forward, not backward like the regular bulb). That's why it looks like a dot. But it is much brighter than the stock bulb. On the next two pictures you see the regular bulb and the LED's compared. The shutter speed and focal opening are identical:

It also happens to have the same color as the 6000K HID lights. The position light seemed to be very noticable the last few months it was in.
