    I have a ‘79 308 GTS, (carb) and the little plastic sleeve/cover that goes over the headlight operation switch is cracked and slides off, sometimes while driving. Sometimes it makes me wrestle with the headlights going up and down. It’s quite annoying.

    I have searched for this and literally can only find the steering column stalk cluster that includes the entire light switch, turn signal and the stalk on the other side, complete for like 2 grand.

    All I want is this black plastic cover! Somebody help, pleeeze. Picture below, part circled.

    Never been sold by itself. May be very difficult to get. I'd send it to O.D.D Parts in Northern California. He is by far the best at repairing those and the Who's Who of the Ferrari restoration industry use him to fix that kind of thing. He has been fixing column switches for a long time. Good guy too.
