I was going to control my mirrors with a switch unit from a Strange rover classic

Why not use the corrado switch? They are the same as the T25 ones and fit in the door cards properly, if you've got a later van then feel just infront of the grab handle on the door card, there is a cutout and you just need to cut the door card then it slips in nicely - I've got a set of big electric mirrors to fit and bought a corrado loom and switch from ebay for a tenner, it's a seperate loom and all you need to do is connect a power, earth and wire to the heated screen switch if you want that to work.

I was only going to use the RR switch
1. just to be different and
2. It's been so thoroughly mucked about already :lol:
Might still go the Corrado switch/loom route though, if the hole is in the door and the bits are that cheap :D

Hi Silver Bullet,
Did you run off any of those Corrado adapters in the end. I'd be well up for a set if you did.
Cheers,
Dan

It's in the pipeline, but as ever, i'm bogged down with "proper" work, resurrecting 1930's Jag engines for people with more money than sense - long may it continue!

I was offered some LT ones for the syncro at "reasonable" money, but pics never arrived...keep on looking I guess.
