The lower half of the nose piece has two square openings. To my knowledge
only the special trans-yellow "Y" will fit into these square openings and
allow a single bulb to illuminate the right and left side simultaneously. If
you increase the spacing between the square openings, via the split nose
theory, you would need to find an alternate way to fill and light up both
sides.

Technic brick with a lens in the center? I'm not sure I follow what the
problem is, exactly... can you elaborate?

Ah. (...) Right. Make that square opening thing into a separate brick. If you widen the nose you can leave it centered. (25 years ago, 23-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)
