MG T-ABC

Try fitting the electric push button starter switch on a right angle bracket mounted to the bolt that holds the steering column to the under dash mounting bracket.

This enables the original starter pull switch to be retained (unused) and the dash to remain original looking. The starter switch is easy to operate and is out of sight. If the original fibre board type cover is retained the switch can be operated through the hole where the steering column goes through.

As an alternative to the TD/TF switch, you might consider a bugeye Sprite switch. It is a cable operated switch so you could use the original TC starter pull to operate it. Without really investigating, I would think that a bracket off of the upper starter mounting bolt would be the best location for it.

BTW, when I bought my TC 7387, it had a Ford solonoid and a pushbutton switch on it. It seems to start a little bit better now that I have returned to the original mechanical switch. I don't think the car was very happy with the extra current required to activate the solonoid even though it probably wasn't that much. Since you are using a TF starter, that might not be as big a problem.

My TA is set up this way, the switch is in the tool box with the terminals covered with rubber boots. It is located so that the pull is straight on, no friction. Might work on the tC too....
