    Any 'How To' on refurbishing early Window Switches?

    One by one my early switches are giving up the ghost. Of course the early switches with the chrome surrounds are NLA. Has anyone successfully torn one down a refurbished? I would be very interested in how you get into the switch without ruining the cosmetics and then steps after that. (I am not holding my breath on any replies )

    Have you tried Stoddards, as of a couple years ago I got some for my 72. As I recall it is also used as the sunroof switch. You can take them apart by levering out the actual movable lever part, but the chrome was bad on mine so I replaced. Still have the old ones if you need one.
