Manual Headlight On/Off Left bar Switch on EBay UK
Heads-up - came across this switch on EBay UK - they are hard to come across these days. Should be straight plug-in for most Triumph applications (probably not 05+ Sprint - I know it won't work on the 05+ S3)
I have this on my SpeedTona - nice feature to have to be able to turn off the lights.
£25.00 is approx $50 USD
No affiliation or knowledge of buyer or this actual item.

Had one on my 2000 RS - worked very nice. Moved it to my 2006 ST and it did not work. I really miss that switch.

Why on Earth would one want to turn off the lights? I've seen this "feature" added to some motorcycles (in at least one case, as a total hack job involving a Radio Shack switch and some speaker wire ) and I just don't get it.

on a slightly different note, theres regularly new(ish) european spec Km speedos and european spec headlights (non UK) for the 05+ sprint ST coming up, usually every 2-4 days. from the same comapany (robinson foundry) on UK ebay www.ebay.co.uk
http://motors.search.ebay.co.uk/triu...MEFSRCHQ3aSRCH

at the last count, i think they`ve sold 20+ pairs of units, but the wording of the auction makes it look like they only have the odd set.

some of the parts might be of use to someone, maybe we could start a thread flagging up parts (worldwide) on ebay and similar sites
