Hi folks,

I have trouble reaching the turn signal switch when sliding the switch to turn on the left turn signal. Is there anything that can be done to correct this? I have trouble reaching my thumb over the switch and sliding it left.
 
Not sure we understand the problem. We have small hands and short stubby little fingers but we have no problem reaching the turn signal switch with our left thumb. You could perhaps loosen the switch housing and rotate it a bit to get it in closer proximity to the thumb?? Other than that, not sure what to suggest...

We trudge on (puzzled).

What size are your paws? our resident Mexican MrLupe does not have the biggest hands around and I have never heard him complain
 
Ha, you two are funny!
When I hold in the clutch, I can't reach over with my thumb to turn on the left turn signal. I have to lift my hand off the grip in order to turn on the left turn signal. Does that make sense.

I thought I had normal sized hands but now you've got me wondering if I'm a freak....
 

At a guess I would say "a Freak"
 
 
Yep I can understand, I have the same problem because my left thump is length challenged, i cut half of it off years ago.

I'd have to see it to believe it..... Come on over we'll have a few beers...talk about it..take a few 8 x 10 glossy photos...... try on a few thumb prosthetics..... we'll get it figured out!
