[C320-list] Rocker switch

Wed Jul 1 09:24:02 PDT 2015

The list on the website is a few years out of date. I bought from Dennis 
earlier this Spring and got a more up-to-date list. I'll try to find 
time to post it soon.

BTW, one of the items I purchased from Dennis was the rubber boot for 
the starter button on my 1999 320. The rubber boot on my boat has a 
metal base that threads onto the switch, but the one I got from Dennis 
is rubber only. Does anyone know how to replace the rubber boot in this 
situation? My recollection is that the boot was not on Dennis' price 
list but he told me he had one anyhow.
