#1 Fitting headlights to S1 bonnet

I cannot find details or pictures of how the headlights are attached to the bonnet panel. My car was dismantled by a previous owner and some parts are missing.
Ideally an exploded diagram is required to identify the different parts and the order of assembly.

The pictures in the Barratt's calalogue are quite good.
The bowl screws to the bonnet with self tappers, with the seal in between.

Pretty certain my back outer bowls are held on with small bolts and captive nuts on the panel behind. The chrome retaining ring that actually holds the lamp in place is screwed to the inner bowl by self tappers. The inner bowl is held to the outer by a spring.
Getting the scoop in place is a bit of a fiddle! That goes in before the bowl!
