ARB type rocker switches ???

Post by rustynuts »

Can anyone tell me where you can buy ARB type rocker switches at a reasonable price? Want to convert all old toggle switches into something that looks half decent.

Thanks

the switch itself is a carling switch, if you google carlingswitch you should come up with the different styles, some don't have lights, momentary action, different colours, contact arrangements etc, maybe somewhere like jaycar? ebay US? carling is what you need to look for though

Somebody on this list may be able to help - there are 2 Australian distributors

wouldn't it be just a matter of changing the back light bulb from 12v to 24v.

Ok you caught me..Its me.

Im selling these on ebay for now, but soon I will have an online shop.
These switches are exactly the same as the ones you would buy from ARB.
No their not cheap chinese ones either, these are genuine carling.

1. No You wont buy them from ARB.
2. No You wont get them from a Distributor.
3. No thier not labels...They are printed/stamped with a very expensive machine.

Plese dont ask for them through this forum. This isnt the place to "Do Business".
