toggle switch ID tags

I went to a lot of trouble to get these made for toggle switch ID.
I had ten sets made black & 10 in white.

Also clear labels to ID the lamps.pics a bit average for labels I found it hard to photograph.

2 sheets of labels & full set of tags (11)Aust $80
If these sell happy to make more.
Open to suggestions as to other names or emblems on tags.

PM or email me.
Jim

Those look great. Can you tell me where to get some. Also, what is the ID of the label hole?

Re: toggle switch ID tags

To be honest Bill Im throwing in the stickers for nothing with the tags.
If some one wants to buy stickers only. $5 for 2 sheets.
By the way the Tags are 2mm thick.
I can get thinner if any one wishes.
I can cad for different switchs.
It only takes about a week.

Re: toggle switch ID tags

Ok guys
I have recieved a few emails over these(tags).
I had them made because I wanted some for myself & I thought it was a neat idea.

They have been designed around std switch size of 12.2 mm hole in tag.
I have noticed what appears to be larger switchs being used (I dont have a hole or retaining ring size.)RF & CAV use it.

The pic posted is the ones I have, I am more than happy to make others but we would have to keep it simple such as red or black.EG IGN & HAZ red all others black
If I get enough of different symbols I dont mind having them made.
If only one person wants a perticular symbol I dont think it will happen.


So if you let me know if there is something else I will cad them up & post the drawings before I go ahead.
I can get them done thinner I will check on thickness.
I would ask if you are serious good but dont make an order then pull out as this exersize is not cheap.

I would have to sell in lots of 10 - 11 min order for the Aust $80.
You can pick.
As going to the post office for one tag is not viable.

Re: toggle switch ID tags

Mark
I have been asked that question via a PM, I dont see a prob but I think it would come down to the amount of thread your switchs have left on the underside of the dash.
If you are struggling to get the top nut or ring on now I would have my reservations.
If you can get a 2mm plate under the nut (wind the nut on the back of the switch down)then they will fit.

Re: toggle switch ID tags

I have my order in to Jim for a set for my RF, along with a few other goodies.

It'll be interesting to see if I can get them to fit with my padded leather dash. If not, I think I can carefully grind down the fiberglass around each switch on the back side of the dash, making the fiberglass a little thinner and buying a little more room for the ID tag to fit between the dash and the bezel nut on the front. I'll post up my findings when I get them.

Re: toggle switch ID tags

The closest I have found are these on Ebay.

eBay Motors: Iconic Switch Labels for Toggle, Rocker, Push Button (item 220010229100 end time Apr-19-07 11:32:05 PDT)

They are not as nice as Jim's but available.

Boy, did I have a brain fart when I posted that. Because I have the 20mm Lucas switches, the labels I need are the glue-on type, which, thankfully, will not require any sanding or grinding on the back side of the dash. In fact, I received my order from Jim yesterday and I have to say they are beautiful! Jim even includes a little bottle of adhesive to use. And this may not be the best thread in which to post this information, but his quick-release body work hinges are a thing of beauty.

I have had a very positive experience buying Jim's (Mental Performance's) wares, and I highly recommend their products to anyone who is considering them.
