Indicator stalk

[Johnnyunderpants]

Hi
I am searching unsuccessfully for another stalk for my bus. The column is from a 72/3 bus. Was wondering if anyone had a spare i could buy? I have included a pic
Cheers
Nick

'72 or '73? There's a difference… Got any pics larger than one pixel?

Looks like you need the whole switch.

^ there is not a single 73 switch for sale. Those things are (or were) really hard to come by

Hi
Thanks for the replies. The number on the stalk is :211 953 509 H
Yes, i need the whole thing. When i bought the van 15 years ago, it had nothing in it, just a shell so i sourced everything from various other vans so im not fussed if the switch isnt the same serial number, as long as i can use it is great for me.

I dont have a larger pic at present but can do another one tonight.
Be much appreciated if you can help.
Thanks
Nick

If that is the one that plugged into your harness, that is the one you need. It is not a serial number, but a part number. I have not seen a thread on adapting a different year to year. there are different number of wires for different years. looks like you need the rare one. I will check my stash. are you sure it was not 211 953 509 H?

[Johnnyunderpants]

Sorry. Missed the 9. Thankyou very much.

As long as it fits in my coloumn surround, im not fussed on the part number to be honest. My wiper switch ends in an A!

[alman72]

you want a parts unit or a good used one? do you really just need the stalk? are your plastic pieces in yours still ok? they break.

1 and 2 in the pic could make one good one. the plastic internals on one is broken. I am not attached to these. the broken one still works, but for how long? no clue

three and four are good, and I don't even know what I would want for them, as they are a bit rare.
they are pictured by themselves as well.
the #5 pic with the whole assembly including the windshield wiper stalk is unfortunately broken as well (plastic) feel free tp PM me an offer on anything.

Hi.
Either of the last two on the bottom pic underneath the one pictured with surround attached are what i need. As long as the wires are attached thats great. I have the surround so it'll just be a matter of bolting it to my surround and wiring it up.

$205! use that turn signal gently, 73 drivers! I guess if you need one, available NOS is nice. The problem is the plastic piece that breaks on these is still 44 years old

It is Out of Stock......
