Before fitting the bow light, the barbette for the second turret is assembled, quite easily, just I just clicked it into position:

I found that threading the fibre optic cable was straight forward however tying the knot was frustrating because it kept coming undone once pressure was applied pulling it through to its final position. Perseverance prevailed though!

Once the jackstaff support was fixed then it was a case of threading the fibre optic through and securing at various points:

I then wired up the test pack, and hey-presto the light works!!!
