I just picked up a Lucas 34721 from ebay for about 60 bucks. I have not looked
at the car to see if it fits, but looks good...

Subject: [Tigers] Tiger Headlight Flasher
Thanks much to everyone for
supplying information on this.
To summarize the comments, CAT Shop Notes and
as a result of further research
on my part, it appears that all Tiger and
Alpine columns are the same.
Headlight flashers were on European cars but not
generally on US cars but
perhaps on some. There are/were quite a few of these
switches around because
several people have retrofitted them, often to provide
horn capability when
the steering wheel was changed for an after market item.
At least on my car (Mk1 2703) the stock switch, without the flasher feature,
has Lucas P/N 34720B. The Lucas model number for everthing is 85SA
The
following P/Ns will fit directly: 34719, 34721, 34981 They have varying
letter
suffixes to indicate mod level.
P/N 35557 is probably Volvo and fits a
smaller diameter column, but can be
adapted to Tiger/Aplines by making custom
brackets.
Per a 1967 Lucas catalogue for Rootes vehicles (Hillman, Humber,
Singer,Sunbeam, Commer and Karrier) P/Ns 35558, 35612, 35690 and 35691 also
have combination indicators and flashers but their usability on Tigers is
unknown. Similar switches were fitted to other cars including Volvo and
Rover.
There is a rumor that the switch for an MGB, Sprite, Midget (Moss Motors P/N
141-770) can be fitted/adapted? to the Tiger and is available new at $79.95.
