    Can anyone direct me to a source to replace a broken hazard light switch and plastic cover of the handbrake - both are for 1974 US spec Dino GTS.

    Thank you in advance

    The handbrake plastic grip is available from a number of suppliers. The price varies a lot so I'm presuming the quality may as well.

    Dino Parts https://www.dinoparts.com/en/parts-accessories/ferrari/dino-246-gtgts/brakes/hand-brake/16972/handle-hand-brake-assy

    O'Rourke Coachtrimmers https://www.coachtrimmers.com/shop/ferrari-handbrake-grip

    Stefan at Dino Parts also has the Hazard switch https://www.dinoparts.com/en/parts-accessories/ferrari/208-308-gt4/electrics/switches/11769/control-switch

    If the OP is really talking about the *hazard* switch, I suspect that the alternatives that folks are citing won't work.

    If Dinos are anything like Daytonas (and I suspect they are), the hazard switch is not a simple "on-off" affair like the blower switches; it is multi-terminal, and does some sort of internal "swizzle" when you flip it...

    That one from Brandoli looks like the right sort of thing...

    Brandoli told me that they could not guarantee it to be correct. Eventually I found one on Eurospares - waiting for it to arrive from England. Still searching for handbrake lever: Dino parts doesn't have and can no longer make it and I am too cheap to spend 180 GBP at O'Rourke Coachtrimmers.
