There were some switches for sale on ebay not so long ago.Don't know if they are right ones or if they are still there.Do a search under TVR.

The Ebay ones have gone and it sounds like LeeBee got them
I'd try RS or Maplins

Exactly which bit is missing and what colour do you need?

Surely Zertec or Leven are worth a look?

Sorry Chima but having established exactly what cap you need can I now ask if you have actually called TVR at Blackpool and asked them for one? I predict they will say "no problem sir we've got a box full of those", give you a part number and tell you to order it viaa dealer. Where's the problem? Rich...

You can try one of the TVR dealers who do mail order parts. TVR Centre (North London) does this.

As has been said, get the part number from TVR Blackpool and then try these guys for supply:

Alternatively, make your way to a TVR car meet and steal someone else's... only joking.

Chima, TVR's phone number is +44 1253 509000.
Explain to the girl on reception what it is you want and see if she can give you the part number? They are usually (in my experience) quite helpful, especially if you explain you are in Turkey and need a bit of help! Good luck Rich...
