Found this in the shop today ;)

This one is for a 92 Bronco customer of mine (4513). Momo has them in stock, and I can get you them if you would like.

I have an extra 4513 (92 and older big bronco) here at the shop if anyone is interested.

Momo also has the 93 and up Bronco / 92 and up F150 in stock (4535) if you are looking to get one.

Probably a lame ass question-- anyone care about using cruise control with the Sparco wheels? CC isn't something that I use a ton but its one of those stupid long drive veg-out conveniences that are kind of nice. Just curious if anyone had adapted something into the dash or a console that was somewhat stock appearing??

I'm interested in seeing if someone has done this as well.

The command a pretty penny IF you can find one on eBay. Willie has one. We had discussed me putting it in cad to laser cut copies, but never got anywhere on it.

If guys are buyin up at $125 I'd say we may sell a few. If that thing is just killing time chillin out on your shelf send it up on my way for a couple days and I'll make the file. I'll get it back to you before you even know it's gone. At that point it's just seeing what it would cost to have them cut, which is a farm it out job.

Jkrell has a small torchmate
that could burn these easy. So does Kelly I think.

This is going off topic, but my concern with the torchmate & plasma type cutters is cleanliness & kerf. My thought it laser or water jet would be a much better choice for something as small as this.

For cutting out basic tabs, etc. the tochmate is fine, but there is a reason I'm having some of my stuff laser cut when a buddy a few doors down from my old shop has a torchmate & will cut for me.

For intricate parts I would agree laser or water jet the way to go.

Here is more what I had in mind. The Kenworth I was in today had this type of cruise switches or the next are older BMW switches that are similar.

The beauty of the saleen bracket is its stupid simple to install. In the address the guy is talking about the additional parts for the back of the switches... Does anyone know what that is?
