We are pleased to note that you like our new Lucas horn and we are arranging to fit up a similar one on 19-EX mounted under the front apron as per De/Hv's scheme but farther back than the one on 58-GN in order not to muffle the sound.
We are also arranging for the starter switch on 58-GN to be modified so that the hold off portion is deleted. R. {Sir Henry Royce} has now agreed to this in R2/M2.4.32.
