wayno Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 This is a red headlight knob, not a hazzard knob, didn't know they made red headlight knobs. Link to comment
dat521gatherer Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 If you look in the black and white owners manual photos it was only mounted in the hazard location of the 520 which they used the same pics for the 521 manual. Black and white photo equals a slightly lighter knob that is the red one. The graphics on the knob itself are of the 520 style. I think the graphic style change for all the knobs was in 68 or maybe 69. I have personally pulled 2 out of 520's from the hazard switch. But yeah it's confused a few people including myself.

So your saying that the early 520/21 hazzard knobs didn't look like this. Link to comment

dat521gatherer Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 That is a 521 flasher knob. Look in this pic and the 2nd to last is the 520 style. At some point they started using the red light symbol for the emergency flasher, maybe they used it first and the went to the black style that we are used to. I would like to look in some 520 owners manuals but every time I bid on one I get outbid. More reference here is the light switch difference heater fan difference wiper difference Link to comment
dat521gatherer Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Yes, I have the red knob in my headlight switch pile and use them on my headlight switches but they really are a 520 hazard knob. wayno do you have any of these? I'd be slightly tempted to trade you one for one of your uber rare 520 glove box knobs. :) Link to comment
dat521gatherer Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Choke difference for reference on the far right. Link to comment
dat521gatherer Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 datsunaholic knows about this knob. http://community.rat...h__1#entry56507 Maybe my black hazard knob noted in the pic above is rare. It is the only one I've seen. Link to comment
wayno Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I don't have the big flasher knob or the red knob in my 520/21 switch container. I am not sure what I am going to do with the early 520 glovebox knob I have extra, I generally keep an extra in case the one I have breaks. Link to comment
oldskoolvws Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Wow...BOING to those knobs...and I'm straight!!! :rofl: Gatherer...thanks!!! Doing the process now.....taking it to the grave, I'll never tell... Link to comment
