Is the mounting plate supposed to be on the top or the bottom surface of the upper rail edge on a fall of 1924 (1925 model) runabout? Shown here on bottom, which I think is correct.

Chose your poison. They've been found both ways, though the manual shows them mounted "under" the frame edge.

Re: Question on starter switch mounting
looking at where the pedal comes thru the lip on the front seat frame, looks a little on the short side now. I think I would move to top so your heel doesn't bottom out on the lip before the switch makes good contact inside.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas!
