Ho all

i have inherited an old black anglepoise but made teh mistake of taking off the black switch/bulb holder. Sadly this is now unrepairable and finding a black replacement is proving difficult .

Can you post a picture of the piece that you removed and where it goes on/in the lamp? Without a pic of what you started with, its hard to hazard a guess as to what to replace it with.

They supply spare parts - I needed replacements for the switch mechanisms which broke on all three of my anglepoises - and didn't charge me anything
