    Wow. Got home from work yesterday and the switch was on the porch! I think Messicks is just over in PA, but it's nice to know they don't dilly dally about getting orders shipped! Might get to put it on today.

    Job done. Installed new switch this afternoon. No more flickery dash display! Also discovered that Knots has some nifty reusable zip ties. I almost cut it before I realized it can be easily released.

    You see that a lot on the Jap mfgs, especially on the wiring. Pretty nice, huh?

    The switch came as an assembly wires, loom and connector. All that was needed was a dab of dielectric grease. Easy peasy....
