    Clyde, if you take off the rubber surrounds on the USA switches you will find the correct bakelight knobs underneath. No need to source new knobs..

    Cheers,

    Clyde, as Michael says just pull off the rubber surrounds and that will reveal the switches underneath.
    Having said that, as I'm here in the UK I'd be more than happy to come over and take off the rubber
    for you if you specifically need help from a European to do it, at your expense of course!
    cheers, Mike

    Head light, but it looks like it's missing the chrome bezel

    Not correct I know, they don't have the light tube you're looking for but they could work until you find the correct ones.

    The beautiful thing about taking off the rubber surrounds is that they keep the switch knobs underneath in pristine condition most of the time!
