I presume this is the same type as the 1584 bay one.
I may have a used one that I can test, what's the opening temperature on the one you need as I think T2s and beetles were a bit different?

Here's the pics - I've tested them in hot water and both work fine:

As you can see one seems to have a bit of the flap actuation rod stuck in the top and the other is missing the brass 'cylinder' that the rod fits into.

Well that backfired on me didn't it. I was joking. I assumed that being aircooled it wouldn't have one...

No probs - it got me digging them out and photographing them so it'll be easy to advertise them.

You're not getting any commission though :D

LOL, I fell for it too, was about to ask for a manufacturer number and rating as I wondered why you hadn't specified!

Well genuinely I would like the rear window heater switch for a mk2 Fiesta. As you'd expect they aren't cheap on ebay.

I need a window seal for the quarter light side on the drivers side but I would imagine it would be impossible to find.

Rich pickings today from the flea market, seven quid's worth of stuff here.

Old condensors, a Tex Viewmaster complete wing mirror (late 1950's), some BMC trim clips, a thermostat for the Aggy with Wm. Morrison's price sticker, graphite release bearing (suspect Morris Thousand), an AC 4lb rad. cap and some Girling brake tool I can't for the life of me think what for. I've seen them in the past, just can't remember what they're for - shoe removal perhaps?

All added to the pile of never-to-be-used junk.
