MG TD TF 1500 - Accessory plugs....

Speaking of the +/- plugs on the dash... Picked up a little spotlight at an antique shop with bare ends on the wires... Bought two 'banana plugs' from an electronics shop... removed two of the little spring parts (leaving two, one on either side) and it plugged right into the sockets.
I know the original plugs are still available, but are a bit pricey. The light works like a charm.

Gordon:
On my J2, which I believe has the identical accessory sockets on the dash, I soldered 3/4" long 1/8" brass rod (available from local hardware store) to the wires from an old voltmeter. They plugged right in & did the job.

Hmmm...now just where do you get all these antiquey things? You must have great antiques shops around!!

Good going, Gordon!
