Subject: [CR]Help with (poss OT) d/t shifter conversion

Hi all, Since I have never been able to determine if my 80's Bianchi Limited (and it's components) is on-topic or not for this list, let's assume it is off-topic. If anyone can help with my dilemma, could you please email me directly?

I would like to remove the Shimano 600 Arabesque shifters and replace them with d/t cable stops, so I can use thumb shifters on the handlebars. Trouble is, the 600 braze-on bosses do not accept any cable stops that I can find here. None of the usual Shimano or Campy stops fit. I guess I need to know if such things exist, suggestions, part numbers, etc. Thanks so much.
