Can someone please help me with an image of the markings on a 1970 MK2 heater (plastic). I have used dymo tape to ID slide positions but it looks a bit dodgy. Also, is fan single or dual speed. My rocker switch only operates in one direction, but maybe this is by design. All feedback appreciated. Thanks

This is the best image i have found on the net. I can get a better one tonight if it is not that clear. http://mcrforum.minicooper.org/viewtopic.php?t=1192

Sports850man recently had new decals made for these heaters. Not sure if he has any left.

Hi Winnabey

Yes still have few heater transfers. If interested $10 each set which includes postage in Australia.

Thanks

As a matter of interest, the transfers are the same size, font and colour on both the metal and plastic Cooper S heaters.

They aren't the full face transfer are they sports? Ive seen them around but hadn't seen anything for the mk2 heater.

If they are the smaller type I am interested, if you are in Sydney are you going to the All British day?

No there not the full face vinyl one you can buy in the UK from a dealer.

These are transfers, each individual ones that rub off: car, screen & off. They are the same as the original ones sizing & font.

Yes I will be at All British Day.


Thanks

I found the correct size/ font and colour at a craft/model shop.
It is a little bit of a pain as each letter is like a water transfer sticker.
I just reprinted each position letter by letter placing the transfer on top of the old letter.
Weezer's helped a lot and a small amount of water allows you to position the letter into the correct location.
Looks a treat and original.
If I can find the remaining transfers I'll place the brand name on the post.
Cheers.

My friend David W sent this photo to me. This is how it looks when finished.

Thanks Everyone,
I bought a transfer set from Sports850man a while ago, I'll put them on now I know the correct orientation.
Regards
Mozzie
