Why not turn it into a positive and call it a "factory feature".
Makes your car somewhat unique, and hence more desirable?

| Post subject: | Unusual Clubman switch panel |
Below is a photo of an unusual Clubman switch panel which I have found amongst my parts. It looks like the usual early Clubman centre ignition panel except it has a silver "sticker" on the left hand side. I am used to these being black with a silver Leyland logo inside a silver rectangle. This one has a black Leyland logo inside a black rectangle. Also it is missing the printed (screened?) word HOT on the far left hand side, it only shows WARM and then COLD. I have carefully inspected this under a magnifying glass and it shows no evidence of the word HOT ever being there - unless these printed words can be removed without leaving any sign of damage whatsoever? Any thoughts anyone? |

I have seen quite a few of the silver sticker type. They appear on the 1971 Clubman and Clubman GT. I assumed they were an interim switch panel used before the Black logo was used or if there was a supply issue. A few of the GT road test photos show the Silver Logo. The pics are too grainy to see if they have the HOT wording.

Attachment: CHI335 Dash,.jpg Here is a pic of a switch panel with Silver Logo with the HOT wording. I am not sure why yours would be missing the HOT. Attachment: 1971 Clubman or GT switch panel.jpg

Perhaps they were trying to be realistic about the temperature coming out of the heater
