Here you go - come to the Bristol Meet and buy me a beer (if it works)!

Sorted the mirrors Sanj - yellow/white wire to the n/s m/switch had broken at the point of entry to the switch - machined out the switch potting with a Dremmel mill cutter to expose the connection pins, soldered new tails, re-potted with epoxy and connected with shrouded red-gauge Lucars
Thanks for the guide and photos - would have been lost without it!
(Incidently, the m/switch is a Burgess V4NC series - here's the maker's website :- http://www.saia-burgessusa.com

Noted! - still getting used to the vehicle and have yet to push my boundaries as my confidence builds (used to own a Trooper that was certainly 'interesting' when manoevering at motorway speeds!)
