Exactly, even though the switch isn't overly improved any, think of 
the bigger picture here. Wouldn't it be nice to also have new 
headlight switches available for cosmetic issues as well?

Along with hardly no NOS switches available, and the eBay scum 
wanting $90 apiece for one. It would be nice to have them available. 
As long as most of us occasionally drive the car, and do so 
occasionally after the sun goes down, there is a good chance we 
might need one.

Better to have one and NOT need it than need one and NOT have it.

I managed to secure 2 NOS ones before the Houston offer for repro 
ones. I still ordered the first headlight switch because after 
owning classic mustangs for years, it is always a good idea to 
support vendors that make restoration parts for cars, especially for 
a market as limited as ours.

What would the Delorean owners rather have, faded old looking 
switches protected by in-line fuses, or nice NEW switches protected 
by the same inline fuses? If I had a choice I'd rather have 
something that looks nice, AND is functional.

The inline fuse fix is great, but why not have the switch also look 
nice in the process, or serve at minimal as a cosmetic backup till 
the mechanics in the switch fall apart if the electric part doesn't. 
ANY moving part will wear out eventually, that's a fact.

It would be nice to have the option of NEW switches available, 
instead of jerry-riggin' the old ones forever. I just hope the 
community gets off their ass and supports this option we have before 
it is too late.
