Default Ford CMP Starter switches

Hi Eric,

Attached photos:

My original, as far as I know, starter switch mounted in the dash. Embossed with "Start" and uses a plastic or bakelite button.

Next two photos show a nineties repro switch of unknown origin, chrome plated with chrome steel button on the left side, and a current Dennis Carpenter Repro chrome plated with plastic button on the right.

Older repro is not marked "Start" but the Dennis Carpenter one is lightly engraved and not embossed with "Start"

Other than those differences any one would do the job and be a good match.

The original one is very flush with the dash as are the other repros.

Sometimes people modify the hole for the starter switch making it bigger to use more readily available switches. Perhaps this is why yours is not flush.

Hope this is of some help.

Cheers,
