Thanks to all who offered help (I'm definitely keeping this linked).
I got the part (2 actually) for free and just finished installing it. Works like a charm. And the key now rebounds as it should be (I think it was just loose).
And I got the clock to work perfectly too. It fits great into the bezel that I bought (from P-n-P) for 6 bucks. I also decided to paint the indicators for the speedo, fuel gauge, etc.
It's amazing how much nicer it looks. I just wish I had taken more pre-pictures of the truck. The carpeting I bought and the new dash top have made such a huge difference.
