    Hi Neil.
    They could be part of a searchlight kit.
    I attach pics of a couple that I have waiting to be built up.
    The pictures speak for themselves.
    Hope that may help.
    Regards
    Bill.
    Never give up.It will come right in the end.

    Have been sorting through the pile of fittings I bought and I have 14 brass tubes (with a hole in the side) with a pair of clear plastic discs for each tube.

    Tubes are 15mm long and 12mm diameter. Any thoughts on what they might be for?
