what for?
i.e.
Most remade lambretta switches are absolute shite that wont last for more than a month even if kept totally dry!
Ignition switches: I gulped and paid £40+ for a casa one for my GP as all others I'd tried were a far east import xmas cracker quality.
I'm afraid it really does pay to pay more from a reputable dealer and get a branded item if at all possible.

I bought a Casa, best one I've had yet, but as Mr Timeexit17 says, buy from a known dealer with exceptional customer service,
Corrado of Just Lambretta. Any number of members here will back me up on that too.

I use Corrado everytime as the service is exceptional, he even went 160 miles out of his way to pick upthe hagon shocks I bought of him last year to take back on his way to hagon as I said exceptional service

I'm having to tap my ignition switch with a hammer to get it to turn sometimes, not good! Cheap light switch needed grinding to fit the housing, so buy the best you can afford!

Got to echo what the others have said already. I use Casa ignition switches on all my scooters and have never had a problem with them. Well worth it. I use a Casa dip switch as well. Likewise, no problem with that either.
