Need: Radio Switch

Post by counsellj »

The radio switch on my 55' has failed in the closed (radios remained powered up) position. What sources do members recommend for replacing this switch. While I like keeping my bird as original as possible, I'm not against updating these switches if I can still use the same nut and knob, preserving the original appearance.

The part number is 0713026-4

I appreciate the input.

I was curious to see the part and Googled it. There is someone selling them for $20 on E-bay. Might be worth a look.
