    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

    Why not just go view the car in person. If you like it and strike a deal, get the title signed and pay the owner. John

    ERA is a slip fit with a bolt holding the two pieces from slipping apart. I think the originals are like this. John
