MG MGB Technical - Lucas Part Numbers - headlamp switch

Does anyone know of an on-line reference for Lucas part numbers for dash switches used in our MGBs?

Lacking that, can anyone say if any of the following numbers is correct for the pull-on headlamp switch used in the 1967 MGB:
BHA 4578
34519
34317

Thanks,
Jerry

Jerry - According to the MGOC parts CD, the BHA4578 is the correct headlight switch for the 67 MGB. Send me your postal address and I'll send you one of the CDs. Great way to check out parts and to get them from the MGOC. Cheers - Dave

FYI the parts list can also be downloaded from http://www.mgocspares.co.uk although it does have to be done in about 14 sections if you want the whole lot!

Although I run a kit-car so am not to bothered about originality, www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk in the Uk sell some "chunky" dash switches which are the same size as the BL ones albeit with a more rounded feel.

They were £5.65 a piece which is a fair bit cheaper than £18 I was quoted for "official" BL stuff.
