Anyone know who supplies Y type choke cables and also the side/headlight switch(I have the octagonal knob with the grub screw).

Anyone got any spares for these.

I may have a switch, but I trust someone from GB can supply you with one, too?

The cable will probably be cheaper from Speedograph Richfield
http://www.speedograph-richfield.com you may need to supply the hex knob and they will make the cable up.
The light switch that NTG supply is slightly different from the original Y one. I think they have made a hexagonal knob to fit a Morris Minor switch so the shaft fitting is different. I found that second hand ones are all worn and sloppy if they work at all.

You can get a cable from the Octagon (SC0002 - I think) its down as fitting a TA/TB/TC/YA I bought one a month ago. However, the knob is not the same as a YA despite the claim. Have a word with Pete as he will undoubtedly help. Is the knob the same as on a TF? He may be able to have one made up for you.

Hope that helps
