I have a genuine HJ Sandman,and Im the second owner and mine never had courtesy light switches.

Just thought I should post this as I have been a member for a few months now.

when you say courtesy lights, what is it you refer to?

a hz sandman should have the roof light as operated by the push switches in the doorframes, AND footwell lights mounted to the underside of the dash which come on / off with the roof light.

next time im near my van ill grab a part number for the footwell lights

i believe its the footwell lights that is the tell tale sign, as most models had the roof light, but it was only sandman level commercials and premier / stato that had the footwell lights.

correct me if im wrong.

Switches in the door frames turn on the footwell lights & the light in the roof lining...

I had never seen the footwell lights till I saw Rod and Jennies van! I have wb stato ones in my WB, but thought the earlier ones just had the roof light. Youngsters hey!
