Hi there, I am running a project to collect and document the history of electrical fittings made in Australia. York caravans seem to have used two specific types of electrical fittings made by HPM Australia - I was trying to date when one of these in particular ceased production. Do any York owners, particularly from 1975 onwards have images that would show the switches and power points in their caravans? This would greatly help in determining whether specific fittings were still being made. These are the fittings I'm interested in dating: HPM 550 Series Switches: Screen Shot 2020-02-07 at 5.20.07 pm by oldmacs, on Flickr HPM 896 Power points: Screen Shot 2020-02-07 at 5.20.24 pm by oldmacs, on Flickr <button class="RTclose">×</button>

I have those in my 1972 York which probably isn't that helpful but I've shared your question in the Millard & York Facebook group and The Itty Bitty York Committee Facebook group for you

Not sure if you can see the replies on facebook, York Y9384 - 1976 has replied with photos of the "squared" beige switches (ie not round like above), I have the same squared ones in my '77 Millard.

I have the HPM 550s in my 1976 11ft York.
Power outlets all look modern, so I guess have replaced what was original.

I have a 1974 York 10 foot . It has the same switches. It's all original . Is it better to keep unoriginal or modernise the inside. Would it lose value if I change it. Does anyone know what these are worth roughly in really tidy road worthy condition.

You can however personal message any member & discuss. Prices are gained from Gumtree, ebay, Caravan sales etc. Cheers brent
