Default Check out this British site for switches and lamps

Lamps and Switches

I looked these guys up from a search...
They have on off 2 pole Lucas style toggles and 3.47 pounds and warning lamps in blue red and green chrome bezel replaceable bulb 12.5 mm which a mm bigger then the 7/16 we require.


toggles

Lamps

For CDN $ multiply by 2.28
For US$ multiply by 1.45

I ordered 6 switches and 5 lamps...for 60 bucks CDN

Default It figures

I go to order the switches this morning and the 5 I wanted on/off simple 2 position, are all out of stock and they don't know when they will see them.
So I am ordering from Vancouver, a shop there specializing in restoring british sports cars has them at 15.95 CDN

I did end up ordering a 2 position lucas style switch from them.




and 4 warning indicators 2 green 1 blue and 1 red with the nice chrome bezel and replaceable bulbs (13mm) See item #3




Nice looking stuff came with in the week in airmail to my door like a letter. and it was cheap.....

I think this place is a great source

If they only had the other 5 switches it would be a great deal.

Highly recommend you guys putting a dash together should browse the site

Default Right on!

Whaler,

Those #3 warning lights are the style I was looking for.(See England Cobra club).

Turns out that a guy over in England not only purchased them for me, but brought them here to the states and mailed them to me.

I really like this style light... will have to check out the site further.

I am very pleased with my goodies.
The toggles would have been 1/2 the price of anything you have seen before as well

Great site for goodies

Hi guys - try going to http://www.a-stafford.co.uk/ if you are dead set on using UK suppiers for Lucas switches etc. This supplier is more "cobra oriented" than Vehicle Wiring Products Ltd. I have used both suppliers, they are OK.

Staffords also do the dreaded Lucas "two speed and park" wiper switches specifically for Lucas self parking wiper motors, which should come with a handy wiring diagram (I know, I wrote it for them!)
