[Healeys] BN4 Panel switch

[michael adams]

I have used Marine parts to replace chrome nuts for switches.  You may want to go to a marine store to find a simple pull switch that has the nut size you are looking for, Cole Hersee Co is one that comes to mind.  Some stores even sell these nuts buy themselves.  Hope this helps.

Subject: [Healeys] BN4 Panel switch

Team.I have been searching for some time now to find a pull-twist-pull lightswitch (PPG1) for my BN4. The new ones available are such rubbish! Theiraction is so stiff and difficult it strains the dash panel and the retainingnut is a piece of knurled aluminium. Anyway, I finally snagged one - NOS -on Ebay, and very nice it is too.  Now my question. I believe my Longbridge BN4 would have had a chrome hex nutretaining the switch into the panel and all I can find are the slottedchrome rings. I know I'm being picky, but It is going to smack me in the eyeif I don't get it right. Does anyone have such a thing lying around spare?All costs would be covered. If it helps I have 1957 Lucas bits I'm happy topart with for you concours types out there. Here's hoping. _______________________________________________(______________  Alan Bromfield  _______________)   (______     \____1957-BN4 ___/    _______)          (_________________________)            http://www.nfahc.co.uk
