    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.
    BD

    Grubby liked post by CompClassics On thread : Building ERA Slabside #3012
    Looks like a nice build, great color choice as well. What kind of wheel and tires do ERA recommend? Whenever I do a drivetrain installation on a big block or small block Cobra, the bellhousimg is...

    Grubby liked post by bobcowan On thread : getting things back to normal
    The usual cause is the small screws that hold the accessories, especially the ones that hold the sun visors. They're just a smidgen too long. If you file them down a little, you can prevent...

    Agree with repacking the bearings but why replace them (unless they show some sign of wear or weren't packed to begin with). They should last decades.

    "The only trick is to not over tighten the nut when you put it back together." Or Under-tighten the nut. Not a good thing.

    Grubby liked post by Mark IV On thread : Which Transmission will give me the correct ?
    The TKO 600 shifter is adjustable and can be within 1" of the original position. Unless you are carrying a tape measure very hard to tell.

    If it is 400 series SS, it will be magnetic. Only 300 and some 200 series are non-magnetic. Most OEM exhaust systems are 400 series and they rust over time. The rust is no big issue as it would take...

    I am not disagreeing on being exceptions to the rule, but 40 miles on a $60k engine sitting half way around the world seems like it would be an exception to me. Especially when it seems as though the...

    Unless you simply can't swing it, you should go with the six pin hubs and the outboard braked rear. They're just a whole lot of fun to play with. But if you got to pinch pennies, then an ERA...
