My new turn signal switch arrived a couple of days ago from Panteras by 
Wilkinson.  Total cost with shipping: $402.62.  It really looks good, 
and still had the factory tape on it with the de Tomaso logo and "de 
Tomaso Automobili MODENA S.p.A 41100 MODENA (Italia) * Stab. e Uff.:V.le 
Virgilio, 9  (059) 84 81 02 - Telex: 510619 DETOMA - Fax (059)84 85 
36".  This would seem to confirm that there is indeed a space between de 
and Tomaso.

I don't have the old one with me to compare it to, but the quality of 
the new switch is great.  I can't verify the auto canceling of the turn 
signals until I mount it on the steering column, but everything else 
checks out mechanically and electrically.  I didn't realize that the 
plastic piece on the end of the stalk had writing on it (Flash, High 
Beam, Turn) because it had worn off of my old unit before I bought the 
car.  If I run into any problems once I install it I'll report on them, 
but it looks like this will solve my ongoing problems, and I give high 
marks to Panteras by Wilkinson for quickly shipping a quality part.
