Desperate for either ek wiper switch or fc head lamp switch

[NT-FC]

Hi guys, I am getting desperate for EK wiper switch or FC light switch that I can use as a wiper switch.  I do have a few parts I can swap and happy to pay with cold hard cash, please someone out there must have one they are willing to part with.

Doesnt really matter at the end of the day its only a switch i would use FE-EK one as they have the same finish on the knob.

It also depends on what type of wiper motor it is, 1 speed or 2 speed??

I believe the torana switches were used because they were originally set up as 2 speed and were directly interchangeable (with an increase in the size of the hole in the dash fascia).

If your wiper motor is single speed you will need a resistor style switch to alter the current getting to the motor to achieve a slower or faster speed. 

The motor I brought was the 2 speed with torana 2 speed switch, so to achieve the look of an original switch I drilled the back out of an FC knob on a drill press, removed the torana knob and glued the FC one on in its place.

Dont ask me what I am going to do if I ever want to get the switch out of the dash................will cross that bridge when the time comes!!!
