Post 924 request

I was wondering if anyone could supply me with a picture of the switches behind the shifter on the 924. The guy that owned my car before me absolutely butchered the center piece on my car and put some very odd things on there. I'd really like to make the car look original again.
Thanks,
Wade

I could , but I added one 'non factory' rocker for my driving lights.
The far right should be for the rear wiper
The far left is to switch between the L and R power mirror. I had blanks in the 2 center until I added the other switch.

Actually - that would be great, at least I could see most of what I'm supposed to have there. I have a couple of very large lighted switches. They're about an inch or so long, blue (lighted switches) and look terrible. You could e-mail them to me if you like.
Thanks!

Thumbs up

Where did you get an aftermarket switch for the driving lights that fit that hole? I am getting ready to install driving lights on my car and ould love to mount the switch there, but also keeping it looking original.

You can get switches like that from MANY sources, Partsheaven being one...

They have unmarked switches, as well as normal switches for replacement purposes. Make sure you don't overload the switch, if you wanna run some high wattage appliance with the switch, you'd need to wire it through a relay. (so your switch would actuate the relay, which would take a lot LESS strength than running the actual appliance).

To be honest, I just had a switch the right size laying around, I dont know where I found it. I'm sure you can find that size rocker switch at Radio Shack.
And Yes... Ahmet... You are right. That switch activates a high power relay.. The relay supplies power to the lights.
