Terry M-(Moderator) 2,175 #2 Posted June 2, 2013 Nice Find!! It's really hard to find those anymore. Still looking for an HL-5 light set-up for my sons LawnRanger. Everytime I get close to a set they just "slip-away" from me... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 37,130 #4 Posted June 2, 2013 The factory kit uses a push pull type switch, and it's bracket gets mounted to the right side of the dash tower. http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/files/file/1857-hl-5-light-kit/ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dclarke 4,032 #5 Posted June 2, 2013 Here's a pic of my switch and bracket. Sitting in the seat, it mounts on the right hand side, at the top of the hood stand, where the gas tank bolts on. Kelly may have an original switch or you can buy one similar at NAPA. This is the only pic I could find of it mounted on my tractor 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
