    I'm refurbishing the interior of my Euro 308. Anyway the plate that shows AC dial positions and several others on the center console are looking pretty worn. Any recommendations on the best place to order new ones?

    Thanks
    Jeff

    I just did mine today. I got the AC plate on Ebay, and Verell's switchplate set from Ricambi. I also found a new antenna switch, and replaced my window switches last year.

    The rocker switch for my QV is on Ebay for $45 or best offer from T Rutlands.Try best offer (hint hint). It is listed for the Mondial, but is the same switch.

    The switch from T Ruthland are the black plastic one. If you want the correct style Lucas with the round chrome bezel this is not the one. I just ordered a window swtich in the correct style but you have to replace the knob. I will look and be back with the info if you want.

    I believe it depends on the year. My '85 QV came with the plastic rocker. Earlier models had " mouse ears", and even earlier models had the "straight bat" style. Not sure what year 308 the OP has.

    Yes I understand there was different switches. I think it was probably due to availability when the cars were built. Since ALL the switches and levers in a 308 are MOUSE EAR type the Lucas switch look much better matching the rest of the console.

    My thinking is it was designed and suppose to have that type.

    Later QVs (at least US versions) had rockers for windows and antenna from the factory. I am not sure what year they did the changeover.
