I am in the process of restoring a 1960 TR3A. I am trying to be as "correct" as possible and use period correct accessories. I have 1960 vintage Lucas fog and driving lamps that I intend to mount on a badge bar. Does anyone know what type of switch was used to control these lamps? Is there a source of NOS switches or does anyone make an authentic reproduction?

Thanks

Hi Frank - Not a TR expert by any means, but how about a Lucas pull switch like in the attached photo? I think this would match your existing switches. I would be happy to send you a good used one (simple off-on) as fitted for wipers, etc.

Good Luck!
James
