- If that's really a rocker switch it may be from an early model TR6. Dave

- It's a Clear Hooter and was used on the TR250 and early TR6. If original and working, it is worth some good money. Scott Suhring Mechanicsburg, PA '70 TR6 '59 TR3 Found a Lucas hazard switch in with

- Be aware though that if one installs a Clear Hooters switch it's life expectancy will be the same as that for all of them and that is maybe 2 years at the outside. This, based on my experience of the

- -- Original message from Dean Paige-- Deano is right about that switch. In fact, it was such a piece of crap, that my car was recalled by TRiumph to have the crappy Clear Hooters headlight switch rep

- So if Clear Hooters were not made by Lucas, why does the switch in question have a Lucas part number ? I'm clearly confused, probably because the Stag's alternator is on the fritz and I drove the Gr

- I dunno. Were the part numbers issued by Lucas? Were they specified by S-T? Were they issued by a joint industry council? All references to C-H shows them to be an independent company from Lucas. (Se

- My 73 GT had a factory recall some time in the mid 70's also for the light switch. I kept the replacement at home (good one) until the lights would not come on many miles from home. I jury rigged som

- So are you saying Lucas ordered it from Clear Hooters (who are a British supplier, not Asian) ? Not trying to be funny/obtuse, I just don't understand ... Randall
