Richard B Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 You do see them around. Presumably yours is a facelift MkI ?Check on eBay or Scrapman may have one, usual suspects Chis Witor, Wins, Earlpart... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJB_Harvey Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Worth remembering that on MK1's you can wire the horn to operate on the headlamp flasher stalk , all you need is a double bullet connector .... Don't think they like it for Mot purposes but mines been like it for over 10 years ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I was considering that very mod this week :)Though I think I might put my overdrive on the flasher (logic box so only uses momentary) and put the flasher on my overdrive (when I get it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is there more to it? I've a MK2 box in mine and I'm not keen on the "button".Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Andy,Currently I have a J-type - same as yours - but a normal non-OD gear knob and a momentary switch in an awkward position on the centre speaker surround.You can still use a standard overdrive stalk with a J-type.I have a logic box that makes the overdrive switch a push button - I like it because it switches out of OD when you change gear - so you don't get that "forgot to come out of OD" moment when changing up in to 3rd and the OD switching in.Because I have the logic box I could use the flasher on the end of the indicator stalk to activate the OD - meaning I don't have to take my hands off the switch.As I plan to install a proper OD stalk I could use this for main beam - or anything else I can think of.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
