Hello and welcome! Those are going to be tough to find, not many in seat starters are around, may have to make them from scratch. The knobs are still available.

Thanks for the scoop and reply.
How many years did Cat use in seat starters?
Mines a 58 my friend has 56 and you start that from side of tractor.
It was around late 57 on up, it was an option when ordering a tractor.
Look to the 955 (12Axxxx) Traxcavator for parts. That's the origin of in seat starting for the D315 engine.
Thanks guys I really appreciate it since I’m new and green to the old Caterpillar tractors.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.
