Posts: 6 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 |  *** tipo theft damage advice***ignition switch/lighting/indicator housing reqd *** My Tipo 1.4 ie s 1995 N was broken into over the weekend  . The little ***tards attempted to hot wire the car but failed! However they have broken off the ignition switch and badly damaged the Steering column ignition / stalk housing.My Insurance companies repairers have said they will not repair it due to the value of the car. ( Why am I paying fully comp ins???) My local Fiat dealer have done a temp repair so I can drive the car. ie they have temp attached the ignition switch and prevented the housing from moving freely. They advised me to go down the 2nd hand route but I cannot find the part I need having searched the internet all day yesterday and contacting numerous scrap yards. Does any one have a ignition/stalk housing? Is this the correct description for the part? Any advise would be much appreciated.  :
