I have used Marine parts to replace chrome nuts for switches. You may want to
go to a marine store to find a simple pull switch that has the nut size you are
looking for, Cole Hersee Co is one that comes to mind. Some stores even sell
these nuts buy themselves. Hope this helps.

Subject: [Healeys] BN4 Panel switch
Team.I have been searching for some time now to find a pull-twist-pull
lightswitch (PPG1) for my BN4. The new ones available are such rubbish!
Theiraction is so stiff and difficult it strains the dash panel and the
retainingnut is a piece of knurled aluminium. Anyway, I finally snagged one -
NOS -on Ebay, and very nice it is too. Now my question. I believe my
Longbridge BN4 would have had a chrome hex nutretaining the switch into the
panel and all I can find are the slottedchrome rings. I know I'm being picky,
but It is going to smack me in the eyeif I don't get it right. Does anyone have
such a thing lying around spare?All costs would be covered. If it helps I have
1957 Lucas bits I'm happy topart with for you concours types out there. Here's
hoping. _______________________________________________(______________ Alan
