on my cooper s mk2 I have noticed that the hi beam operates
off the blinker arm.
I do have the floor switch installed but the 4 wires have been
cut 1 inch from the switch.
Is this normal on the mk2 cooper
regards Felix

I've had two mk2's with the dipper on the floor....they both had the wires cut to the dipper on the arm as well...
they were April 70 and May 69 models.

Was there a changeover point?

My March 1970 MiniMatic has the dipper on the arm, no dipswitch on the floor.
If that helps. :lol:
