Chrome-tipped Switches
« on: February 05, 2013, 02:49:42 pm »
I would love a set of chrome-tipped switches for my car, but I can only find them for the 5-door models. Did they ever make 3-door versions?

Mate, I've hunted everywhere for the 3 door ones, I ended up buying these, then a seperate headlight switch for £11; so it came to £49 all in... which isn't too shabby :happy2:

Just called the dealers, apparently they don't stock them anymore.
