We had two and sometimes 3 of them in the patrol cars. 1 had the traditional function, one was the gate release on the electronic shotgun rack and if the 3rd connected to the manual siren.

Damn how could I forget my 76 F 100 Ranger? That was the last vehicle I had with that switch. Must be getting old. The caddy I had almost 40 years ago.
