Chrome ones where also used in early HZ. upto when ever the change to the black ign switch was.

I believe the change over was around the end of Sept. 78 to the black glovebox lock and ignition switch. (end of year change.... model update)

You will notice Jennie and Rodneys Madeira red van is a 5/78 and has the silver ignition barrel and chrome glovebox lock. We discussed these when I was down there visiting.

The chrom glovebox lock was also used when the chrome single prong ign switch was used. From memory it was an ADR. been slack/busy so havent dug it up yet. But I believe it was to do with the glare. Thats why they went black lock and ign.

so where did the black single pronged ignition start with the black glove box lock?
must be at the start of vb commodore coz they got black ignition single prong?
