I would like to replace my worn knob inserts. Anyone know of a source for these?

I just ordered this hazard switch from JBugs:

It looks like the insert might be slightly different than my original one. My Hazard switch had popped open and was missing the contacts.

Are you sure? I looked for a headlight insert for my 73, and none of the VW (original or reproduction) matched.

we. have the templates but just never went forward with the production as most just repaint the white. The headlight and hazard inserts are readily available but as stated not in the original configuration
