I am pleased to report that after a week of phone calls and an email, Ralph called me. He said the flaking chrome switch he sent was done so in error, and he would send me the correct one.
True to his word, about a week later I received the headlight switch as originally described.
I still feel his descriptions of the other items were far from complete, but that is perhaps an issue of semantics and communication.
My updated experience makes ME feel better, but the experiences of others would still seem to demonstrate dealing with Ralph needs to be done with caution and full photos.
Larry
