[Healeys] Trafficator Control Head

[Bob Spidell]

I bought one a few years ago.  Decent quality, though some minor differences (probably not 100% interchangeable, but 
can't say for sure).  Overall, had a more 'plasticy' look and feel than the original (maybe because it's made out of a 
modern plastic instead of bakelite?).

It broke after a couple years in the usual fashion: quit cancelling.
