Plummerman Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Hiya Folks, Hope everybody had a good Christmas.. I'm wondering does anybody know of any companies (UK based ) that makes anything like these bad boy ? http://www.customrockers.com.au/epages/cucu3398.sf I'm almost ready to start my interior spruce up and something likes this would just be the finisher for the few extra buttons going in Cheers Phil Quote
Plummerman Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 Don't they just, the bunny killers are the ones.. Everyone will be looking for the gun turrets... "Sorry there just fog lights for blinding them before running over them" hahahaha Well I've emailed them as it seems no-one knows of any English ( were crap at making things :-( these days ) manufacturers and hopefully they'll ship from oz. :-) Quote
smudgedon Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 I'm sure they will Trying to think of stuff i could link up to switches now Quote
Wasso Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 They look smart, post prices etc when you're done researching, may even get a group buy, don't forget to ask :wink: Quote
Plummerman Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 I'm sure they will Trying to think of stuff i could link up to switches now Ooooh the joys of having a JDM with just a VDC button.. Can put switches everywhere. Haha Ones going for the DRL reflectors, one for the amp I think. Put them in the heated seat switch holes so then they put some blue tinge out at night as wel ;-) Quote
Plummerman Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 Well website lists them at 30 oz dollars, so by my reckoning about 18 quid a switch but then postage and bloody customs :-( Ill wait and see what they say, and if enough people are interested ill find out about a group discount on them Quote
rabster Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 they look great i may have to get some for the stagea and truck how much fun could i have lol Quote
Plummerman Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 Not your run of the mill Maplin specials are they?! Bloody shame as well but here's hoping the Aussies will post :-) Quote
Wasso Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 See what they can knock off per switch say 5+ 10+ and so on. You can always de-value the package and with one shipment save on some of the cost. Quote
Plummerman Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 Very true my good man.. :-) spread the love er i mean cost around a little. haha There not back at work till the 7th :-0 that's a long six days Quote
glrnet Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 I've got a trade account with Durite but I can't trade on the forum because of being a mod but these guys are good Durite stockists so have a look here, it'll be quicker than getting them from Oz http://www.thetoolboxshop.com/durite-rocker-switches-and-warning-lights-377-c.asp Quote
Wasso Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Well I've paid my subscription so maybe we could work something out somehow? Quote
Plummerman Posted January 8, 2013 Author Posted January 8, 2013 Quick update.. Got e-mail back from the above earlier.. They will ship to blighty :-) I've asked about a group buy, no's etc so as soon as I know anything ill post it up and maybe start a group but thread to gauge anymore interest Quote
smudgedon Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 I still need to decide what I want a switch for! Quote
Plummerman Posted January 8, 2013 Author Posted January 8, 2013 I still need to decide what I want a switch for! Just have them because.. Haha Mystical blue and green glows in the dark ;-) Quote
smudgedon Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 I still need to decide what I want a switch for! Just have them because.. Haha Mystical blue and green glows in the dark ;-) Have you got prices on a custom switch? i.e. one that has text on it that they don't already have? Quote
Plummerman Posted January 8, 2013 Author Posted January 8, 2013 If you have a look on the link, general stock are $30 dollors custom ones more, but if you scroll through to the colour/style you like there's a price at the side I think Quote
BulletMagnet Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Spoke to my work colleague that's very much into the 4x4 scene and he said that you are prolly better off buying from US or Australian eBay. Search for Carling Contura Rocker Switches Quote
Plummerman Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 Well an update on this, our good friends down under never got back to me on the group buy so thought balls to them. Done some more digging and found a site in the states.. Hell ov a lot cheaper, cost me same price for all the ones I wanted and postage for just one from the Aussies.. Have a look and see what you think http://otrattw.com/products.php?cat=14 I've ordered the music speaker switch with custom amp writing instead of stereo and the zombie apocolyspe switch for my LED side lights plus a rocker cover just saying driving lights ( just in case the zombie is cheesy ) $47 including P+P and insurance Quote
Plummerman Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 Well, got my switches made up.. Chaps just sent me a photo of them before posting to make sure there right.. Spot on service. Take a look http://i1251.photobucket.com/albums/hh560/plummerman1/my%20phone/C9A08B1A-F293-49C7-AD99-58DD86A0C4A4-10500-000009F4B707F979_zpse932c4be-1.jpg Quote
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Do they do them in different sizes? Just wondering what existing switches they can replace. Quote
