IGNITION
SWITCH SURROUND
68-70 #484-24U & 484-36U
Also
goes around turn signal switch. May have typical
scratches or scuffs, but no cracks or chunks missing.
Sometimes includes screws, sometimes not. Parts in lower
conditions may be listed separately on the USED INTERIOR
page.
Screws
do most of the work holding the pieces together There are
also posts and extremely delicate tabs. It is almost
impossible to find one with all of these
intact!
Above
is the correct left hand drive cover that USA cars had;
or were supposed to have had. USA/Canada cars should be
like this; with the lock on the left side (door side) of
the steering column. We have seen a few cars that we
believe were not altered after they were originally sold
that had a right hand drive cover on them. There are also
cars that have had the right hand drive cover put on them
later as Nissan USA for years sold the RHD piece as the
correct LHD piece!
As
I recall, moving the turn signal switch to the otherside
made it work backwards since it had to be mounted upside
down!
These
come in two versions to allow for the differences in the
barrel diameter of the lock at the end where it goes
through the cover.
The
484-24U is for an ignition lock with a 1.250 barrel
diameter.
The
484-36U is for an ignition lock with a 1.340 barrel
diameter.
You
can use the larger one with the smaller lock but there
will be a gap around the lock. I have seen some cars with
a trim piece around the lock to cover this. Rarely do we
have this piece.
The
larger hole covers also may have some extra bracing
and/or support ridges. These may be need to be gently and
carefully trimmed to use whichever of the many different
locks that may be on your car; especially if you are
using a lock assy that has the electric switch built on
to it. Some or all of the 70s had a key buzzer that went
off if the door was open and the key was still in the
ignition.
