Headlight position level switch?

Hi,

i found this picture on the forum, I wanted to ask if anyone know what is the part number for the switch.

I'm thinking of using it as a haltech boost switch for 3 boost settings

That would be a cool idea if you could pull it off.
I believe that switch was fitted to European FD’s. You might try the UK forum, they may have info on it.

^That's got to be a European spec thing. Never seen one on an FD, but have seen similar headlight level switches in pretty much every car I've rented in Europe while traveling there (Germany, Italy, UK, etc.). And yeah, I agree that would be a great user input switch for doing things with your aftermarket EMS.

Wonder if these are still available new from Mazda, or how difficult it would be to get a used one in decent shape?

Yup, that's a Europe spec thing, I have that headlight washer switch wire to the AI system so I can disable it if I need to.

You can try to contact Rising Sun Autos in UK to see if they have the leveler switch you are looking for.

Very cool idea. Wondering if it will fit in the same holes as the forg lights. Can replace a blank in my R2 model and use as a boost switch eventually

Yep, Euro only and SUPER SUPER rare. I wouldn't pin your hopes on finding one. They didn't sell many Euro-spec cars.

Headlight washer switch went NLA about 20 years ago, the leveller - no hope I'd say.
