How to change nose headlights from horizontal to vertical for A repaint?

[hola12]

Hello everyone! I'm working on a Canadian Pacific repaint using the SLI CEFX SD40M-2 (from the SLI Rock Runner ). The repaint is going great, but I've hit a roadblock with the headlights.
The base model has horizontal headlights on the nose, but I need to change them to vertical to match the real CP Rail prototype. I'm new to modifying headlight positions and layout configurations on these shapes, so I'm not sure what the best way to handle this is.
How can I change the headlights from horizontal to vertical for this specific model? Is there a specific method to solve this? Any tips or guidance on how to adjust this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm kind of curious why you wouldn't use an actual SD40-2 to model the SD40-2 repaint, versus an SD40M-2 on an SD45 carbody..

There are some BN/BNSF units with nose lights that should be in the library (freeware via Danny Beck files) or from the Selgiman route from TrainSimulations (Both ATSF and BNSF versions I believe).

Oh, sorry, I'm not trying to build an SD40-2; I actually picked the wrong photo. I meant the CP SD40M-2 #5494.

In the file library, there is a Penn Central/PC model that uses the Rock Runner set as a base for a PC SD45, with a FA that covers the nose light. You could then use a texture to create a nose light, like I did with SCL repaints. Or use the more recent Trainsimulations SD45 set.
