For what it's worth, my '80 Spit had the single logo facing right, but with
three positions as you have.

Dear All,

If I haven't posted for a while, it is because I have been working on
Carly (whose MOT expires tomorrow).   I've put in over a hundred hours
of work so far this year, and she still needs a bit of welding to get
her right. :-(

My question for you all this evening relates to the rocker switch in the
middle of the dashboard.   Carly is a November '77 car (FM105671), with
the TR7-style controls on the steering column.   The light switch which
she has had since I got her has three positions: Off; Sidelights Only;
and Headlights/Sidelights.   The switch itself bears only a single logo,
that of a headlight, facing right.   The replacement switch I have just
bought is also a three position switch, but has two logos (facing left),
for each of the two different "On" positions.   The books suggest that
she should have a simple On/Off rocker switch with a single logo.   What
is really correct?

Enquiring minds want to know...

ATB
