    The switches are on an aluminum sheet bent 90 degrees and riveted to the dash brace. I can send you a picture.

    ERA mounted them on 755. When I got 838 they just supplied the switches and I copied the way my last car was doen.

    Shoot me your email.

    Hello Grubby -
    I am contacting you about your recent post in Club Cobra about heated seats in your ERA 838. I have ERA821 also with heated seats. I was wondering how ERA placed and mounted the control switches in your car? ERA installed my heated seats but just left the control switches laying loose under the seats.
    Thanks for reply.

    If you are missing the True FE Experience, drill a couple of holes the the outside surface of the valve cover. In addition to the leak, you'll get some of the "burning oil fragrance". It's a two-fer....

    Jack, hoping that you are aware that "289" openings are considerably different from "427" openings. At least if the replicas are faithful reproductions.
