Switch blanks for mini
CRAIGR - 1/12/11 at 11:38 AM

Need two blanking plates that used to be in minis where the lucas type switches would go for my dashboard .
Anyone got a couple or know where i can acquire some.
Cheers all

How about just using rubber blanking grommets, thats what I've done on the jag to blank the hole where the hazzard warning light indicator was, very locost too, only a few pence.

Classic Mini Mk2/Mk3 switch panels did't have blanks the panel was fully occupied on all models and I know of no other car that used the same switches.

Thought the secondary panel below the dash to the offside of the column that had the foglight in it had a blank on either side ??

I have 2 panels in the shed --- no blank spaces on either.

If you can't find any have a word with BP Grassing in Keysoe very helpful and only down the road from me. Use the workshop number 01234709343 (www.bpgrassing.co.uk) he's got loads of Mini bits offen at Autojumbles and is always stripping cars for use in autograss.

Ah I have discover very late cars with single brakes had the panel you describe --- the blanks were for brake circuit test and hazards

Sorry I thought you meant the Lucas toggle switches which fit into a round hole with a flat on one side.

Just been converting to those, so jumped to the wrong conclusion......

No worries Pete and thankyou British Trident i shall put a watch on them.
