How did these modifications enable the Camel to be a night fighter?

Moving the cockpit back in the fuse and removing the covering on the center section of the upper wing would dramatically improve visibility.
I'm unsure what the benefits of replacing the turtledeck mounted Vickers with the wing mounted Lewis guns was. Less muzzle flash to ruin night vision maybe?
The overall black paint would act as camouflage of course.
