If you have a light switch, that is, OFF, SIDE LIGHTS and HEAD LIGHTS, this may help.. Alan

If you look closer you will see that the terminals are piggy backs in case I want another spur off them, never seen insulated piggy backs, not been able to buy any that are insulated.. Main Build

It’s a MK3 or MK4 loom that I have fitted and modified, I know what your saying but to be honest if your going to play around with the panel at all, I would take off the battery lead because the terminals by there design don’t push all the way on so you can still short out terminal by accident..

Alan fair enough i only know cause i got caught out in my first mini and pulled the headlight switch with the sidelights on  lots of little experiences like that has made me very paranoid about electrics especially when working on older cars like ours where standards were lower.

Why do you need the part numbers, the only switches you can buy now from anywhere are imports and they won’t have the same numbers as genuine switches.. Alan
