Moving my 1974 412 on down the road because replacenent parts are too hard to find.
I bought a 72 tin top bus and the seller mentioned it needed a directional switch, I'm thinking no problem plenty of replacement parts for bus.
Then I find out 72 is a one year only directional switch, and none avaliable.
What are we using for replacements.
I'm not picking bus up until Monday, but already the damn thing is giving me problems |

If you can't find a good working replacement the plastic switch guts can be purchased and new 3D printed parts swapped in. It's not easy but I've swapped parts a couple of times and have a working switch in my '72.
