headlight panel thread

Hello

Little help needed.
Does anybody know what thread is correct for headlight switch panel fixing screws? And MT110 to number plate? 3BA, 4BA?
Thank you

Re: headlight panel thread

Kalle, the headlamp panel screws are definitely BA thread but I can't remember the exact size atm............these were a Lucas item, BA thread, and with a rather "high" dome on the cheese-head screw........from NOS parts I have had these were cadmium plated originally................there were also very small BA spring-washers with the screws originally too............

Hi Steve
Ok. but what about rear light fixing screws? Are they same?

Re: headlight panel thread

The tapped holes in the headlamp shell for the switch panel are 3BA. The tail lamp has screws and nuts. So whatever fits through the original holes.....3BA-4BA.

Re: headlight panel thread

First port of call for threads on Lucas items is 3BA.

Lucas seemed to be very fond of 3BA.
