Wicth one will work with the Moose thumb throttle? I heard the one that On-dunes sells will work, but I will need the switch too.

Do you want the micro swich integrated into your thumb throttle mechanism? Or do you mean placing the push button on the thumb throttle side of the handle bars?

That info is pretty locked up at the source. I know its not a WPS switch, although thats the source for the BD switch. BTW - If you come accross someone building a NOS system (note only one S) with a REGULATOR, realize that the snowmobile grip heaters offered by WPS make awesome bottle heaters ...

Thats a nice leaf switch, but he's looking for the rubber coated one that BOSS sells. Boss wont sell just the switch alone.

There are a lot of people in your boat - Folks that have the BD system or other systems, really like the pushbutton switch that BOSS has. Its not up to me, especially these days - I have asked the owner when Sandbomber brought it up to me a month or so ago. I respect the fact the BOSS wants to protect thier investment and research. Its a pretty versitile switch, especially when coupled with the On Dunes switch holder.

5x, you can make a mount like we did with a flat 3/4 wide, 1/8 or less thick peice of aluminum. Just bend it to fit, and fasten a switch from Radio Shack to it. We are nearing the second season on the same switches, and they are holding up well. I think the switch was 3 bucks, and we bought a length of aluminum for like 7. Ya its expensive but it works good, lol!!
