Question 737 Tech Question on Ext Lighting

In designing the lighting system of a 3D scale 737 I am wondering about the exact number and positions of external lights on the 737-400.

My understanding is there are:

2 Anticollision Beacons (one top, one bottom)
1 Fixed white lights, 1 white strobe, each trailing wingtip
(are these white lights called anticollision or markers?)
1 red position light port wing tip, 1 green position starboard
1 white position strobe aft fuselage
3 taxiway lights (nose, and each wing faring)
2 vertical stabalizer logo lights.
3 wheel well lights

Questions:

Are there also strobes on the red/green position lights?
Are the white wingtip position lights steady, strobe or both?
Is the aft position light strobe, steady or both?
Any lights I missed?

Thanks for any insight or links to tech drawings. Anyone tell me why SWA disabled their tail light? Also, I understand their landing lights "flash". Do they go completely off or just flash?

Thanks again,

Patrick
