Default ILH/6 SAAC Regiment

Dear all,
I have recently become the custodian of a WW2 SA North Africa/Italy medal group which I would like to display with some of correct representative badges.

Imperial Light Horse July 1932 to July 1941 so that’s fairly straightforward. From July 1941 until July 1943 he is 6th South African Armoured Car Regiment so during this period would he have worn the South African Tank Corps badge and would he have worn the 7th Armoured Division Jerboa shoulder flash?
July 1943 through to the end of the war 1st ILH. Would this be back to the ILH cap badge?

Also he was a WOII (CSM) by the end of the war so would he wear the standard crown surrounded by the laurel wreath?

Many thanks,
Paul
