I'm not sure if the new Roadster's canbus system uses the same switch base... I guess it must.

Losing the intermittent wipe wouldn't be an issue.


This is what Morgan currently use...the Freelander Series 1 switch......so I'm told, unless they have recently changed it.

P.S. David...that looks wonderful!

I've just exchanged emails with Matthias about the stalks. They are just plug and play and fit the standard factory steering column shroud as well. He outsources the stalks at the moment but is producing his own ones which will be a little cheaper and restyled in about 6 to 8 weeks. I'll be ordering a set.

Quickblack!

Good name - I like that smile

Thanks everyone for your comments.

Very happy with how the car handles. It is a little stiff and will no doubt get a bit loose over time. And of course there are a hundred different things to get used to like how to handle the car, getting in and out , use of the hoods, etc.

I could not resist pushing it on the motorway to test it's capabilities so I shifted down to 5th gear, floored the accelerator to over 3000 revs and the engine produced a lovely howl and left everything else standing grin2 I must behave myself evil
