My Vixen restoration is still moving forward, albeit at a slow rate right now, but I keep my eye out for odd spares I may need as I go along. One of the things I have been looking for is the horn button that many Vixens have. It looks like a Lucas type button, but has no emblem on it. I had always thought that these were just Lucas horn buttons and one would come along sooner or later, but reading TTs write up in this months Sprint (nice work!) it appears they are quite difficult to find.
Does anyone have any info on these, or better still, have one they might be prepared to sell?

Cheers

Cheers. That's very kind of you. I did pick ups triumph one, with the intention of dismantling it and trying to convert it, but it doesn't actually look any good.

Now that does look good, Thanks for the pointer!

Early S2 with the wooden dash and S1 type switches?

Had to fabricate new toggles which sit on standard lucas Switches.
Nice. Did you know you can get new decals from the Maser owners club for about £10?

The switches on the S1 and early S2 are shared by the Maserati Mexico and some Aston Martin DB5/6I think they are also shared with the Alfa Giulietta as well.
