SWITCH BRACKET 88SA
Retaining bracket that holds a Lucas 88SA switch steady in the headlamp nacelle on period Triumph and BSA models.
This is the small bracket that holds a Lucas 88SA switch in place on the headlamp nacelle or handlebar area, keeping the ignition or lighting switch from spinning around in its hole once it's mounted. It's a simple retaining piece, not the switch itself, and it shows up in the parts books under the headlamp/wiring harness and nacelle figures for mid-to-late 60s Triumphs and BSAs that used the 88SA switch.

If your parts book lists this under the older F5983 number, or you've seen it cross-referenced as WW19224R, that's the same physical bracket - just a different numbering system depending on which catalog you're pulling from.
It's a cheap item to lose track of, but without it the switch can work loose or rotate in the nacelle, so worth checking that yours is still doing its job before you assume the switch itself is bad.
