Title: Dash Knob Dials Wanted
Post by: Ol_Girl_58 on July 10, 2008, 08:42:30 PM

Hi all,

I am looking for the left-hand dash-knob dial - the choke/wiper half.

To be clear, I am not after the dials themselves, only the background dial/labels. I hope this is clear! It doesn't need to be show quality, but decent with the writing intact.

My label has had a hole drilled into it where a "nitrous-oxide on" indicator light now sits.  :-\  ;)

Rares have a complete set, but it's fairly expensive, and at this point in time I only want one side.

Cheers,

Ol_Girl_58

And before anyone asks, my knobs are still young, efficient and in perfect working order. At least, that's the feedback I get.  ;D

Regards,

The part you are looking for is called an escutcheon.

Thanks guys,

I have seen an advert regarding the Rares reproductions, however at this stage I only require the left hand escutcheon (thanks Alex  ;D).

Cheers,
