Abstract

A pair of foot operated gear change switches U, D are provided for a vehicle 10 having an electrically controlled transmission 14. The switches comprise an up-shift switch U and a down-shift switch D and are positioned in the driver's foot well 22 for easy foot operation by the driver to select between output ratios of the transmission 14.
