Police Eldorado Ignition Switch Boot
« on: June 26, 2026, 01:28:49 PM »


He Gang, Slowly restoring my 1974 Eldorado Police and the ignition switch boot was missing when I bought it. I've been looking for one but no luck and I thought the one from McMaster Carr is way over price but I did find this inexpensive rubber boot from Amazon. Try this link- https://a.co/d/0b4dhhai if it doesn't work then copy and paste this description in your Amazon search bar- ( Set of 5 - Motorcycle Scooter Wire Harness Loom Connector Covers - Large - Fits Honda Kawasaki Yamaha Suzuki ) without the parentheses. This connector cover is the largest they sell at 38mm and will fit over the ignition switch which I believe is 41/42mm with no heat, just work it around with a small diameter pick/screwdriver and best if you take the switch out of the holder to maneuver the boot on. It fits great and looks good. Any questions let me now. Later!

You might want to send this info to https://www.thisoldtractor.com/moto_guzzi_loopframe.html. Greg might be interested in putting this on his site.
