Headlight switch

Hi Gang,


Starting my wiring. Need a good headlight switch, 12v
Want head light, park, panel, dome.


Looking at Jegs catalog, Painless 764-80152. $ 65.99


Was wondering if there is anything else comparable for less money.


Original sw has a dead position. and I believe it is the original 6v sw.

I used this one from EZ wire. I swapped the **** so it looks like the original. I also used the wiper switch and swapped the ****.

I went with this one:

GM Headlight Switch

For $26 plus shipping I couldn't beat it. It's standard GM wiring diagram and comes with the connector plug and terminals for a nice clean install.
