Can anyone tell me from experience which HAZARD Switch I need for a 1972 240Z? Long Lead or Short Lead type?

Thanks

The hazard switch for my '72 240 is of the long-tail variety.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply peterc!

What build date is your 72 240Z? What is the original color? Have you chaged it durring the restoration?

Mine is 11/71, Metallic blue, not restored (yet, some day I know to do it!)

Hey Bambi

Mine was built in 02/72 and the original paint was that pukey fluorescent yellow. It was repainted white at the time of delivery (white was not a Datsun option that year) by the original owner.

I'm painting it metallic blue (base/clear), or will be, in the spring. I've pulled all the glass, doors, hood, hatch, etc. to be sure and get everything done right .

Where abouts is the hazard switch supposed to be mounted? For the life of me I can't see one in my zed.

On the dash near the cigarette lighter. See pictures in previous posts for a pre 1973 switch. 1973 switches are of a push/pull type located in the same area.

Aussie 240z's didn't have hazard switches installed, as fas as i know.

None of mine have had hazard switches.

Cool....that's what I suspected.

Anyone know what's involved in installing them? I know from around 76-77 here in AUs we got a Hazard switch.

It's pretty useful to have especially when wiring up an alarm system so that the indicators blink when u lock her.

I've always wanted a Hazard Switch :classic: . BTW mines a 72 also.
