Original Dash Knobs - Part 2!

My big mistake was to get tied up with switches.....stick to knobs, worry about switches later.

... and the lesson i learnt was:

- using SPF swicth gear is not what you want (knobs are fine)
- if you want the dash illumination switch, Holdens (UK) stock it, but v expensive;
- for wipers, you can get Lucas NOS or see e-bay. The key point is that the knobs are designed for a hex shaft ie a lucas product, not a half round shaft (standard electronics industry shaft)
- as for needing Off-On-On - very easy - there are simply loads and loads of lucas switches that have this combination and more. Yu just need to get your multimeter out and work out a logic table of which connection switches to what, and then wire accordingly.
- just make sure you buy a switch with a circular , rather than hex bezel if you want to be authentic
