Can't understand the desire to make this conversion. I grew up on floor mount dimmers and the column mounts drive me crazy. Every time I let my car off the leash on a country curve seems like there i

Bill and Penny Answering your first, when driving straight my hands are generally at 9 and 3 o'clock or thereabouts. Thus in a turn my left hand is either at 12 or 6 and the dimmer isn't at either. S

I have studied the B and think it to be a small modification to move the spring point on the latch to convert it to a fly-off brake. Plan on trying it when I get time. Incidentally, the fly-off is an
