This is a set of toggle switch caps for the MGB Roadster. I made them for a 1965 MK1 ('62-'68), though they may be usable on other models. The plastic caps on the toggle switches had degraded to the point where they were not salvageable, so I designed some new ones. Though the switches are available aftermarket, the caps alone are not (at least, I couldn't find them) The original caps do not have any markings, but I added some recessed lettering to make the switches more identifiable for their specific purposes - wipers, lights, heater fan. I also included a non-lettered version if desired.
There are also two variants: one with a reinforcement ring (printed in an alternate orientation) and one without. I was concerned that they might split along a layer when forced onto the switch shaft, but I don't know if that fear is really founded. Feel free to experiment!
Note that these are not exactly the same shape as the originals from the factory. I beefed them up a little to make them
