In the thread "Source for stainless steel engine vents Brian "Bridog" stated:
Well ask and you shall receive. I was able to find the Imtra switch he posted here.
I went through the process of figuring out how to make it of stainless. It will match that exact bolt pattern, but won't have the small detent on the lip. The weight alone will hold the lid down. It will also have a real hinge, not a hooked in one like the originals. These should be as easy as unscrewing the plastic one and screwing these back down. I will have pricing tomorrow, but it will be determined, just like the vents on how many are ordered.
Todd, Nice work. They will look awesome. It seems the new trend in boat building is making the engine vents more stylish. I actually like it. Once you get these babys rolling you can add a LED option to really add some bling. Let me know when you start making windlass foot cover switches in stainless, I'd buy them for sure. I wish you much success. Good luck, Brian
