The obvious place to mount a landing light would be on the nose gear assembly but if you look at the geometry of the Hunter, any such light would be obscured by the gear door mounted in front of the nose oleo.

Funnily enough, when I was first asked this question, I did a bit of Googling and came up with a spectacular video of a Swiss Hunter flying "low level" through the Alps and it ended with some footage of said Swiss Hunter coming in to land.

Not a single light was visible.
