  Yeah. Above the interior light in a Westy over the driver's seat is a metal
 plate rivited to the top side of the headliner. You'll need that to mount
the
 additional interior light over the passenger seat. The interior light for
the
 cockpit is mounted differently in Westys as opposed to passenger buses to
the
 best of my knowledge. The holes from the factory for passenger bus interior
 lights are covered by the rails for the Westy headliner. So you'll need the
 metal plate above the headliner for this installation if you're adding this
 light. I myself am looking for the same metal plate to do the interior light
 addition. As for me, no luck yet.

  Good luck and thanks
