The control unit is the same type as AH 3000, and surely other Britsh cars. Picture 2, 3. As you can see in the pictures is it an unversal unit and both static part and handle can be angled differtly.

Thanks for the helpful pictures. I spotted this lever on eBay. It is the same as on a Sunbeam Alpine and, obviously, other Rootes products of that era. I am pretty sure it is the same as the Bristol originally had.

Hopefully I am right (although I need to find a clamp to hold two cables) and I can free up the cold air vent doors.
