Re: steering column controls

2003-01-07 by Don Lattimer <donlattimer@pacific.net>

Nick,

Welcome aboard!

I'm not too up to date on the newer cars.  Where are the controls 
now?  On the dash?  What Model do you have?  My 1971 3 Litre has the 
Triumph steering column with the lights and turn signal stalks 
(although backward for us USA folks on a RHD car)on the column.  
Mike Denman has even put his overdrive switch on the steering column 
I believe. Mike??

Rory at Heritage Spares may also be able to help.
