Hi,
What are the push switches in the Defender called ? Are they Carling Switches?

Any recomendations for a supplier?


What is the trick to get access to the area behind the heater controls?
I've loosened the 3 star screws, but nothing seems about to move.

Cheers

Carling Contura switches are a common aftermarket switch used for, for example, ARB lockers.

Hi,
Hmm! Must be gold plated Link (http://www.expeditioncentre.com.au/online-store/touring/electrics-fuses-connectors/land-rover-auxiliary-switches-for-defender-2002-onwards.html)

I will have to do a bit more research.

edit;

Whitworths have something similar, will check it out for fit next week

Whitworths looks like an ARB Locker style switch not a push button.
