RGS switch plate
« on: 09.03. 2017 10:15 »
Just in case anyone might be searching for one of these. Here is a rare chance to get yourself an RGS/Goldie headlamp switch plate. This is the correct plate designed to accomodate the 41SA switch used on the RGS and Goldie.

Rarer than rocking horse poo. 3 days to go and no bids on it yet. The seller wants £16 a bargin I would say

Hi A10,
Thanks for the heads up on the switch panel  *lol*
Ok I had to pay more than £16, there was a snipe bid with a few seconds to go but I was waiting to up my initial bid,
If it had gone to my max bid I don't think I would be talking about it though  *eek*

I have the correct shell that takes the QD plug loom, and the switch
Another bit for the RGS project *lol*

John, well done mate. That was the first one that I have seen for sale since I bought mine about 12 years ago. They sure do not come up very often. I think I payed about £25 for mine. If you are doing an RGS it is a small, but important detail that many people over look.
