| Please will someone tell me if this switch unit will fit on the Silverwing and does anyone know if it's any good?

| I can't tell you if its any good, but it will fit the Silverwing. They are routinely sold here in the USA by a catalog company. No way to know if your manufacturer gets them from the same place. |

| Thanks Dan.
I know there's a similar one with rocker-switches and I recall reading reviews years ago saying one was better than the other.
I'll take pot-luck. |

| It would be a simple way to install switches. Imho it would blend better if it came in black. Why not install some mini rocker switches just below the little square knockout below the handlebars. I just ordered a package of 5 black snap in switches from ebay for $3.05 delivered. I also ordered 2 similar switches but with indicator lights in them for $1.57 delivered. I think ive seen pics here of switches installed there so im attempting it when the switches arrive. Ive already checked it out by removing the right glovebox i can easily reach behind the area to run the wires. Theres plenty of room to use a few switches to run various gizmos. |

| Now, why would you need four switches.......? Tea - Coffee - Milk - Sugar? or Gin - Tonic - Ice - Lemon! |
