Default Want to know who made these switches and handles

Mine is a BRA Cobra built in England. I have found no manufacturers marks on either the switches or handles. Any idea? Appreciate any help I can get.

Your pictures come out too small for me to see much.

Maybe you can get in touch with these people for some help. http://www.bra-cars.com/html/289.html

Thanks, left them a message, but they don't accept photos. The switches show pictures of sun and 1/2 sun on the head light switch, if that means anything to you.

That would be bright and dim (but, you probably knew that ).

If it were me, I'd contact Lucas....they seemed to be the supplier of choice for a lot of the Brittish car builders.

Cheers!

Try Finish Line in Miami, also mustang ranch in Nevada I think.
THE door and trunk handles are usually sold as a set, @ $150-180.
Also nick at Acton custom. THere are numerous sources that advertise right here on CC.

Europa-spares carries most of that, they might not be Lucas, there are other UK and European suppliers that they resell.

The other good link for Lucas though is moss motors , -
