Exclamation Wanted: B Series Ignition Housing

Does anyone know where I can get one of these Housings as per video below

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RrktA0suXY

@1:59 mark.

I have called and email these guys, in Brissy and Melb, I just need the housing not the whole kit.

No ones got back to me or they only wanna sell the whole kit.

Wreckers ones are either stripped or damaged.

Even if Ford sell any genuine ones.

Cheers

These are all the components you can get from Ford for the column.

If there is anything on there you want/need let me know.

11572 is the black ignition switch that sits on the side.

The red dot is basically the whole column assembly including column shift lever, the green dot is for floor shift assembly.

Scored one from the wreckers, wow had to go thru about 6 steering columns - $20. Saved $180!!

I asked the wrecker dude if he would allow me to take a part out of the column, he goes find one that's fubar and not sellable and no worries.

Tip: If your ignition switch doesn't return after starting, it likely the attached is the culprit.

Hi. There is a chance that the housing you wanted may be the same as any of the ignition switches from XD to EB which makes them easy to harvest at the wreckers because instead of those push pins they used screws. I have done a few repairs using these switches and doing a cut and shut on the wires and all are still going strong. Cheers MD
