Default Switch Plates

Hi Jordan
This is a question I've asked for a while. With my instrument cluster and panel restorations I had to create both types of switch plates. I have seen the brass ones in Cab 13s and in a panel I restored for the Australian Rover Armoured Car that had a Cab 12 cluster and panel. The brass plates had all the detail stamped into the metal and then highlighted in black whilst the silver plate details were painted/silk screened onto a steel plate as Keefy described.

Does your smaller plate have provision for Autopulse in the central hole? This was not utilised in the Australian plates where the hole was not punched out but was incorporated in plates that were attached for vehicles destined for colder climates.

Bob
