Window switches
Discussion
Anybody know where to get two window switches for a V8S. They have six terminals on the back and are illuminated when lights are on. The switch itself has a diagram of a door and its frame and when pressed only moves about half a millimetre to make the connection. Details because I believe there are a few variants out there ! Surprise surprise !
From what I recall LeeBee has changed his window switches to oval shaped ones, a bit like in the Griff, so he may be able to shed some light on the situation! I would also be interested to find out too, as I intend to re-trim the dash etc in leather and wouldnt mind putting the Griff switches in if possible!

LeeBee has an S2... I thought they had different switches?
I know the dash is a different design but think the actual switches are the same, I may be wrong though!!
Does anyone know if its possible to fit Griff switches to an S2, obviously re trimming around them as they are a different shape?? Anyone else done it??
Yes I changed the switches in my S2 to the Vauxhall type (they are Vauxhall copies as used by TVR on the Griff etc).
I had to cut out the dash a bit for them to fit and modified the clips that hold them in as the TVR dash is quite thick.
I also changed the illumination in them to green instead of the lovely dog wee yellow that Vauxhall seem to favour!
I think they were about £30 pair (I can check if anyone wants some) although they might have changed price as this was a couple of years ago
Cheers

I installed Vauxhall type switches in my dash when I was recovering it
Was quite easy... Here's a pic

Admittedly having the dash out made it extremely easy
