I am trying to locate those red toggle switches you see on fighter planes etc that you flip to fire missiles? I would like to locate one and put it over one of Brett's new switches for the AW4. I have checked fleet farm and they didnt have htem, anyone have ideas where I could find one? I have seen them on ebay, but they are cheap ones. Any leads appreciated.

EDIT: Funny, that have them in the catalog, but not online. Request a catalog...MANY cool things in there.

I have seen them (switch and cover) at AutoZone before for 9.99 in a few different colors.

Del City has them for about $3 for just the cover, and those work with the toggle I include, shipping might kill that though. Next time I order stuff from them I'll get a couple of the covers for people that may want them.

Try Wicks Aircraft or Aircraft Spruce and Supply - they both (I think) have the covers for about $10 each, and that's not bad from what I've seen...

Wicks - www.wicksaircraft.com
AS&S - www.aircraftspruce.com

Both are outfits that cater to homebuilders and experimentals, and the catalogues are free.

I also saw recently an outfit called Illuminated Performance, that does the covers in clear colours as well, and with lighted toggles. Prices didn't seem too out of line, but this silicon geriatric didn't seem to like their site (or maybe Mozilla didn't like it? Just thought of that...) Try www.illuminatedperformance.com, I think.

Oops - it's www.ignitedperformance.com - I decided to check it in IE, and that's what it came up to be...
