Headlamp Switch
My ignition switch is not longer working, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
After inspection it looks like someone open it and is really in bad shape.
It's time to get a new switch.
Originals are super expensive or not longer available. Any suggestions?
Also should I get the 5 or the 3 position ignition switch?
51 25 1 233 276 or 51 25 1 243 273
Thanks

A '76 R90S takes the 3
Another option is to wire the ignition on and use the kill switch and light switch to shut off power.

Re: Headlamp Switch
I am not sure if it is the five position one, most likely it is the three position one. St.

Re: Headlamp Switch
So, the price difference between the BMW site you are on may just be because they have not marked it as NLA. The listed price means nothing.
I am sure besides EME, there are other possible sources for the switch, They were the first to come to mind. St.
