[QUOTE="ArcticMinibike, post: 156843, member: 10240"] [b]Switches / Sheathing / Transplant Part II[/b] I finally got around to replacing black sheathing with silver. Cramming 5 wires down sheathing designed for 3-4 wires was fun. I used all sorts of techniques (pushing it, pulling it with fishing line or thin wire) and lots of dish soap as a lubricant, but never got it to go. In desperation I squirted some light household oil in the tube instead of the dish soap and wham bam it was done. I followed it up with some purple power degreaser to get rid of the oil and then washed it out with water. I also did Part II of my heart transplant to my old switch body. Last time I used a slider switch from a new H/L switch. This time I took the knob from a brand new Z50 off/run switch. Can anyone spot the problem with this switch? [/QUOTE]
