Need some help to identify these strap, i believe they are for WW2 British vehicle and radios, some have labels which are named to vauxhall motors. Any help identifying the straps would be appreciated.

Dont know about the top ones but the last two pictures are :Strap for Satchel signals, and the last one is a stretcher bearers strap.They look to me like patterns with the labels?...
I have a satchel signalling device, with lamp and morse code key with extending rods, the long strap is the same as your last but one photo, minus the short side strap attached
Thanks for the reply, is that the 'signals satchel', if so what equipment would have that carried?
This one is a Strap, Carrying, F (Stores Ref YA1532) as used with many items of signals equipment, but commonly with the Telephone Set D Mk V. The loop and strap are to hold an earth pin.
By the way, M Wright and Sons, as written on one of the labels are the second most prolific manufacturer of WW2 webbing (after the Mills equipment Company), their webbing items usually marked M W & S.
