Alloy Warning Lamps
Hi All,
First ever build from a (really) non-engineer so I was wondering if I could ask a question...
I'm in the process of building a Tiger Avon, and I've got to the stage of laying out the dash to decide how I want it to look. I've
chosen Smiths International gauges (80mm speedo and tacho, 52mm oil pressure, water temperature, volts and fuel), so I'm a bit limited on the
layout.
I quite like the look of the hoops and toggle switches like this:
 
Description
The hoops are available from CBS (ouch) and the toggle switches aren't a problem - where I've run into difficulties is sourcing the lamps.
As it stands I think I need the following:
Rear Fogs
Brake Test
Hazards
Main Beam
Main and Sides
All of these are available from CBS also, so that's fine but, (like the picture) I'd also like:
Start
Horn
Windscreen Wipers
Windscreen Washers
Only thing is, CBS don't do them - they suggested to look on Ebay...
CBS ones look like this...
 
Description
I think the switches are made by Apem:
 
Description
Their web site does show Q14 switches but, after getting through to them, I was informed that their MOQ was 25 units with a minimum spend of £300 - so
they suggested contacting CBS...
Does anyone have any other potential leads for similar alloy lamps, or had I better give up on the idea? I don't want to mix and match them
(especially at these prices)...
Thanks,
Peter

Doing the same as me - guards here: Classic U-shaped Toggle Switch Guards (Black Anodized Aluminum)
Much cheaper (see other items for colours)
The only horn I found is here:
14mm LED Dash Panel Warning Fog Turn Light Indicator 12V Bike Car Boat Lamp
They are not identical to the ones you chose (which I originally wanted also)
CBS sell quite a few of the others but it seems not washers.

I have not checked but try RS components.
I know they do some car stuff and are the cheapest i found for ali buttons and LED rain lights.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
Please read my ring story:
