Clear Hooters switch repair

First little repair on the TR6.

The Clear Hooters windscreen washer rocker switch was broken: the locating holes for the rocker tabs had broken, and so the rocker wouldn't stay in the switch.

Also, the spring and rod in the rocker were long gone. I replaced those with some innards from a Porsche switch I had spare, and then drilled a small hole through the switch body and rocker, at the pivot point, and inserted a nail cut to the exact length.

Works nicely!
