Bob,
I've ordered a set - many thanks. At a reasonable price too.
Availability seems to be much better than here in the Uk.
Cheers
Clint

Hi,
Quick update, although not original I can see these switches could work, they are available from Oakmere Toyota.
Onwards and upwards!

Just thought I'd update this thread on Plus 2 door switches for lights.

My Feb 1970 Plus 2S has the four switch setup with door edge and puddle lights, etc. and it used the switch style with the phillips head.

Found two possible sources:

Here's what they're offering, if it's still available:

Thanks, Kev. Yeah, that 's a better price than the Austin A webpage is offering them for. Great.

I received notice back from the other supplier I listed. Their part has a shallower head and its NOS, which means the finish is not pristine.

Okay. . . back to our Lotus' . . . they are not Jags, true, but they're better sportscars :mrgreen:

Regards to you,

Randy
