Default GLT Electric Mirror Knobs

Did the GLT have knobs on the mirror controls? Mine just has stubby plastic tabs sticking out of the console. Just wondering if it had a cylinder or knob on top?

Mine are a pair of joysticks either side of the handbrake lever.

The metal switches are standard; you could possibly fit a pair of aftermarket toggle switch covers - available from Maplins inter alia - in a suitable colour if you so desired.

The original ones are just little square stubby joysticks held to the centre console with little round metal screw tabs. That's factory.

Hi Landie Man

I have a couple of mirror switches available if you are interested - was going to put on evil-bay. Let me know
