[Tigers] Back up switch

Bob,

Thanks for the lead. I called these guys on their international toll-free line
and ended up with perhaps the worst parts guy I have ever encountered. I spent
twenty minutes with him and got nowhere. I finally hung up and phoned back and
hoping one of his colleagues would answer. I asked the second guy I got what
their shipping policy to Canada was and was informed that they don't ship
outside the US. I then pointed out that it was a little silly to have an
international line if they only sell domestically. This was beyound his
thought capability. Quite comic actually.

What is it with parts guys? It's like some fraternity of rudeness mixed with
utter incompetence. Worst thing you can ever do is mention "Sunbeam Tiger".
They lose interest immediately and treat you like a lunatic. As far as the
parts world is concerned it's a Mustang.

I did track one switch down here and have it on order although at a higher
price.

Regards,

Tim
