I need to find a simple hi-lo beam switch. The Honda dealer when checking the specs could only sell me the whole unit for $152....All I need is the switch itself....any suggestions as I am sure the switch if out there by itself can't be more than 25 bucks. Help here will be most appreciated. My bike is an 83GL1100 Interstate.

If you only need the Hi / Lo switch, then any GL110 should do just fine. Only difference in the left side handlebar switch is the turn signal canceling solenoid.

Just buy any of the left side switches, and remove the Hi / Lo switch and transplant to your housing.

I had mine go out the day before a trip a few years back, fortunately Smitty in Seguin had a couple on hand.

One from an '83 HERE
