Switch Plates
So why are they not silver. If you are going to do something, get it right.

I think they are Silver, Bob, the coppery shade is just a product of the ambient light reflecting on the surface. The original plates appear more silver because they are a B+W pic.
A more pertinent question is why did they reproduce the "Bubba built" enlarged hole someone has put through the Autopulse switch position?

Bubba Built
Hi Tony - they probably just went with what they had. They are probably wondering what the hole was for. I have yet to see a switch plate that has "Autopulse" scripted.

Painted plates
I have a new old stock late dash which has the original plates which are a light grey not silver.

On both of my 44 built c15A's that hole was filled with the socket for the light cord.

Hello. My name is Rob and I'm with CAFM. Our plate is the same as what Harry has said, there is a light socket in that spot for a trouble light. Sorry about the colour as that was the closest match that I could find If you want to see what our truck looked like when we got it, go to our web site, Comox Air Force Museum and under vehicles it's at the bottom

Switch plate colour
These plates seem to be finished in the same manner as Canadian 19 wireless sets, that is to say black decals over gloss grey. Like 19 sets, they start out grey but can tend to weather towards a brownish yellow.
