Where can I buy Lucas switch bezels with the slots cut in them?
I just opened all the Lucas switch boxes I have to get the dash ready to go. Half the switches have hex nut bezels and half have round bezels with a slot cut into opposing ends of the bezel. I prefer the slotted bezels, does anyone know where I can buy them? I'd hate to have to go through the expense of buying more switches just for the bezels. I've tried the place where I bought the switches and they can't help. They order the switches and they come from Lucas with whatever is on them. They are a dead end. Ideas, anyone?

Thread size?
Do you know the size of the thread? Dia and Pitch?
I have some that I obtained from Superformance but don't know if they will fit the Lucas switch or not.

I don't know what the size and pitch is, Paul. Do you have a way to measure if I send you one of the hex nuts? |

OK, I got it open. That catalog is a treasure trove of electrical parts, switches, etc. for our cars. What a find, 601HP!!! When I have time I have to go through it page by page. It's apparently a European company - has anyone ever ordered from them before? I imagne with the Euro / Dollar exchange rate it's going to work out to be pretty spendy, but they do have everything!

europa are a good company, speedy on delivery (mostly), and no quibble with refunds where needed. Mota Lita wheels are cheaper from them than direct from the factory. But in the UK, we often go to Finishline as its cheaper for parts iike quick!ifts.
within the UK, you can get a lot of relevant stuff from SVC as well, but not the same range as europa. here a link to their gallery

ofcourse you guys dont get hit for VAT @ 17.5% on everything we buy, UK or US!

The diameter is 9/16, pitch is real fine I haven't counted it yet. My eyes are fuzzy this time of night.
