HORN SWITCH : SEC.8050.
Wraith & Bentley III - D.CD.544.

In order to produce a Horn Button having a moulded top in order to eliminate rattles, we hand you herewith blueprints of :-

DW.631 - Spring.
DW.632 - Support.
DW.633 - Horn Button.
DW.634 - Horn Switch LOP.

The remainder of the parts on the LOP. are Wraith pieces.

Will you please put in hand one sample set for Wraith, together with a set for Bentley III.

We have indicated on the drawing of the Button - DW.633, how, for experimental purposes, it can be made without producing a die.

This completes the instructions.
