INDICATOR SWITCH REPAIR KIT.

The Morris Minor indicator stalk ends get discoloured and weakened over time and replacement of the whole switch used to be the only remedy. This listing is for a single bulb holder casing which fits on the end of the Lucas type indicator stalk used on the Morris Minor and other contemporary vehicles and can be used to refurbish an otherwise serviceable indicator switch. The switch assembly needs to be removed from the vehicle and the connecting wire from the repeater bulb de-soldered and re-soldered again, after the new end has been fitted. The indicator switch and green lens are NOT included. More details and instructions for fitting are HERE. £12.00 Including UK post

AUXILARY BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH KIT

This is an auxiliary brake light switch which fits unobtrusively into the floor of post 1956 Minors (RHD) and gives a reliable indication of braking through the original brake light circuit. The original setup can be retained as a back up if required. The gearbox floor cover requires removal in order to fit the unit and the kit is supplied with all the parts necessary including written instructions. £28.75 (collected)

LATE TYPE INTERIOR MIRROR HEADS

The later type of interior mirror for the Minor tends to suffer from UV degradation over theyears and becomes dusty and discoloured. We have produced a replica type mirror 7″ wide as a replacement for the original . It comes with the socket to fit the ball joint on the

Rear view (showing socket fixing)

original metal stem (not included) and the mirror itself is acrylic, not glass. It is a straight replacement and has a threaded ferrule to help secure it to the stem and to adjust the friction to prevent it swivelling by itself. (A 6” wide version is also available for other applications).

WARNING: THE MIRROR ITSELF IS ACRYLIC AND THEREFORE THE REAR VISION MAY BE SLIGHTLY MORE DISTORTED THAN WITH THE ORIGINAL SILVERED GLASS

The interor mirror heads are now available from Dorset MMOC for £28.00 each including post and packing. Contact: brian.wood@dorsetmmoc.co.uk or call 07411 116336 to place an order or for queries.

MORRIS MINOR INDICATOR COVER KIT

We have developed an indicator cover kit which facilitates the fitting of an later type indicator switch unit as fitted to later BMC/BL vehicles. PLEASE NOTE INDICATOR SWITCH IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS KIT. (It is available separately from ESM under part number SWT101A) This unit incorporates the horn, the dipswitch and headlight flash in addition to the normal turn indicator. It makes a sensible upgrade for the Minor owner who wishes to sacrifice a little originality for an improvement in usability.  This cover is designed to fit a standard 1098 Morris Minor steering column to replace the original turn indicator unit cover and has a black, satin finish. It is supplied complete with metal support ring, indicator repeater lamp and all fixings together with full instructions for fitting.

It is suitable for replacing the cover on Minors between 1962 and 1971 which have the original type of indicator switch with a green light on the end of the stalk. Some owners may wish to fit an aftermarket steering wheel and an alternative design of cover is available to match the common, larger boss diameter and is available on request. This should be specified at purchase.  

This the standard kit (Type ‘A’) to match two spoke steering wheel
This model (Type ‘B’) is designed to match an 83mm steering wheel boss

The Indicator Switch Covers are now available from Dorset MMOC spares at £48.50 each (including post and packing) (Click here for the instruction sheet pdf)

MORRIS MINOR INDICATOR/WIPER SWITCH COVER KIT

We have now developed a further variant of the cover which is enlarged on the left hand side to accommodate a column mounted windscreen wash/wipe switch as well as the indicator on the right. This is also available in two designs – to suit the standard 2 spoke steering wheel or an after market item with a larger ‘boss’. Neither of the switches are included in the kit. The wiper switch is a generic Lucas type and mountings are included in the kit to permit ‘back-to-back’ fitting with the indicator switch on the column.

This the standard kit (Type ‘C’) to match two spoke steering wheel
This model (Type ‘D’) is designed to match an 83mm steering wheel boss

The Combined Indicator/Wiper Switch Covers are now available from Dorset MMOC spares at £79.00 each (including post and packing) (Click here for the instruction sheet pdf)
