If you're going 5 speed, you gotta have the knob, right? Both FJ40 and FJ60 versions will be available...if you want to use your old knob you can just buy the cap (sounds like the fuse box story from a while back 
).
).
Do you have 4 speed caps? 5 speed is a while down the road I'm afraid, need a replacement in the interim!

A whole new knob is only $25.

I doubt it. Not likely to be on the right side of the cost vs. demand curve, and I've never been able to get my hands on a sample.
Add upper ambulance door hinges to NLA list......................
Choke cable reproductions would be great!!!

About 20 of those in a box somewhere around here.
Wondering if they hAve the original knob on them at SOR-shipping not great there...............
Those covers are going to be a great solution and should sell pretty well - solves the issue of installing an H55 and making it look stock-ish . Nice job...

I would bet good money that the knob is not stock. I figured that was the reasoning behind your request to @Racer65 in the first place. Since there are several varieties, that would make fulfillment more difficult. In the old days, I would have hazarded the opinion that your era would be the one to pick for a repop, as owners of that vintage were spending the most coin on restos. Now the movement has filled in across the spectrum, and the demand is even across the board.
I'll try and look for that box of cables today.
Btw- from what I can tell - it would not be all that hard to duplicate the main shroud of the Darth Vader light , I'd have to see one to make a decision if they can be done easily enough to justify the potential market though...

Racer or Sarge, whoever wants to see a Darth Vader dash light. I would be happy to let you borrow mine.

Mark
A picture is worth a thousand words! If Weber didn't get the whole picture before, he's got it now!
Weber, even if all you contribute is the shroud, there are lots of folks that have half a light that would LOVE to have a shroud. I think I have 3 or 4 shroud-less lights.
In all fairness to Racer, I think if he's gonna take a pass on this, we should start a new thread, or better yet revive an old one to continue discussion on it.

Yeah, these map lights are a bit more complicated than most folks realize. The shroud is free to rotate so you can "aim" the light where you need it.
