Headlight switch swap

Featured Replies

Well my car is trying to fight me every step of this restoration. A little plastic piece inside the headlight switch on the column just broke so I need to get a new switch assembly. I'm planning on hitting the junkyards first so I was wondering what years are ok to pull from?

Or by chance does anyone have a spare they want to sell???

Thanks:tapemouth :tapemouth :tapemouth :tapemouth

Hellllllllooooooooo out there!............Is anybody theerrrrrrrrrrrrrre.........therrrrrrrrrrrre

hmph......guess not:sleepy:

I don't have any spares to sell, but FWIW, buying a used one may not last as long as you'd like.....

You should be able to buy a new one for under 100 bucks.... try MidwestZ?

I do know Andy Russell sells them for 80 dollars according to his last price list he sent me... but, I'd imagine Chloe can sell it for about the same price and you'll get a members discount to boot....

I guess I'll be looking into new switches then.

Thanks for replying, sometimes it seems like the question isn't important enough for response.

No kidding, there have been numerous times that I have wanted to take a baseball bat to my car, but a couple hours later when I get to drive her it's like nothing ever happened and she can do nothing wrong.ROFL

It's like they say, " If it's got hi heels or wide wheels, it'll give ya trouble"

I'm one of those weird people who completely rip things apart and completely rebuild them using harder plastic or aluminum, when applicable. Or at the very least, buy a brand new one.

Hey, what can I say, I know when to give up, and break out the VISA......
