Looking for a LHD 95 XJ6 door mirror joystick/switch. Anyone have a DIY solution? I seem to never to be able to get a mirror joystick when they come up for sale? If they break that much (as it seems to be) somebody has had to figure out something by now? Drill out the center and epoxy something in? Can another switch, RHD, different year be disassembled and the parts swapped?
(I also posted this in the X305 section).

 

I pre-drilled the joystick mount (after I took the module apart) and used a small screw (I think with a little glue or silicon to keep it in place). Not elegant, but functional. I haven't even painted it yet.

 

Nice to know you can take the switch apart without destroying it. I may just do what you did, but it would be nice to use something clear, so the light would still show through. It also no longer has the little rubber boot. Thanks for the reply.

 

The base you drill into is brittle clear plastic. Use silicon to hold the screw so you aren't forced to try and screw it in too tight - CRACK!

 

I just replaced the entire unit. All those buttons are one piece and can be purchased second hand. My mechanic told me that he couldn't just order those anymore
