So ordered a few bits and pieces for Frankenstein in my last order but forgot the dam headlight switch.
I had to take the old pull type switch out as it was in the place of the choke cable so out it came.
I had another light switch from one of the other cars but that never worked out well as the dam switch had a short in it. So I dismantled that very quickly.
Nevertheless I ordered a new switch in my most recent order and now the mini has lights again.

Still don't quite know what's going on here. The minute you switch the brights on the front left head light seems to switch off... A task for another day though.
And then the ignition has always been loose since I got the car. Didn't realise it was such an easy fix until I attempted it yesterday. Ignition is now tight up against the switch panel.
