Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to post a link so you can bookmark these resources.

I will attempt this myself with a spare switch I have and will try and write my own tutorial and attach images here (since sites like that often have a habit of disappearing with their images over time) so it's good to have our own resource.

 

If anyone in the interim gives this a go please post your results here. Above all don't throw away your old units! They can be rebuilt!

I followed the tutorial in the second link to rebuild mine recently. Great step by step guide and the switch now works great I also have to rebuild my indicator switch at some point too..

I've read this page a few times for indicator switch - haven't tried but instructions seem clear:

I've done away with my headlight combination and placed a series of switched on the dash.

 

I'm keen to have a spare indicator/high beam switch so I'm looking to swap my headlight combination switch for an indicator/high-beam switch.

 

Any takers?
