Default Ignition/ light switch comparison

This is just to show the difference between the Canadian, and the British switchside by side so to speak. I note from the wiring diagrams that the headlights are turned on at these switches, but the right hand headlight only comes on by switching one of the other individual switches on the panel as well.
The little toggle switch shown is from an Aust carrier.

Interesting Stuff Lynn.... hears a question. my original dash panel where the switch board goes in etc had the steel plate on the front as normal however behind it rather than being an oblong hole (like my new one) it had round cut outs for the switch pannel, starter button etc. is this an english panel ? or did they change the way they made them during production ?
