The best way to display 2D headlight moasics is probably to just stand them up vertically, or figure out a way to hang them from the ceiling so that both sides are in view.

The cube does offer a possibility that a single plate doesn’t. You could remove the top three panels and view the lower three panels from both sides. With a sufficiently stable base, you could even use it as a candy dish.

   Of course, maybe someone else can come up with a smoother design for the cube edges using some piece or technique I haven’t thought of...

Try putting 1x1 plates on the “headlight” studs, and use those as mount points for a series of long 1x plates on both surfaces of the joints.
