Correct, they were originally produced with the housing to take the rectangular switch, but later changed the housing design to accept the s3 shaped light switch. This change of housing was initially thought to combine with the transition to the production of the winter model but it’s now clear that this housing change occurred before the winter model was launched. Be very vary of trying to date your Eibar scooter based upon component parts on your scooter. Remember that these machines have changed hands for over 60 years and replacement parts are probably more common than you think. That’s why I asked about the frame number - this is the best way to effectively place a scooter on the production line in a given year. Excluding the TV, It could be argued that the Eibar S2 evolved through 4 different variants, based upon differing component parts / frame & engine numbers etc ending up with the winter model which first saw the light in approx early 1964
From memory I believe an 0350 ** frame and engine number is approx early 1963. Early frame and engine numbers didn’t match anyway. So based on that information I would suggest your light switch housing is contemporary with the year of production of your scooter - so enjoy it’s uniqueness and post a pic up when you get 5 mins.
Hope that helps.
