    I finishing up my 54 Chevy PU and the PO purchased an unknown aftermarket wiring harness. It works great but the headlight switch requires a strange looking bezel that goes thru the dash.

    Is this a GM product ?

    Does anyone have any idea what would work to secure it to the dash ?

    Thanks for any ideas.

  2. THAT switch is common to everything that had four wheels in the 60's and 70's. Any bezel from anything will work.

    Looks like typical GM switch from late 60's thru mid 80's or later.
    Same as the one in my '72 Formula Firebird.

  4. GM switch, lots of bezel types, sometimes just a nut with external threads to screw into the switch.

    looks like a square shank on the knob? GM switches use a triangular shank. The switch doesn't quite look GM to me. But you'll find out, if you order the bezel, if it fits or not. Hope it does

    It looks GM to me. Measure the hole as close as you can and Pm me. I probably got one you can have.
