Dash ***** positions?

Does anyone know what control ***** go to the right side of my 1962 F100? On my ‘65, the closest to the column was a blank, I think reserved for either flashers or maybe washer button. My ‘62 is slotted, so a chrome blank won’t work there. I have the heater switch installed, next to it goes the choke I believe, last one is a big question.

I may need to find a different type of blank to fit in the slotted hole.

Oh, I forgot that’s what the blank looked like. I don’t think I have one of those in my parts bin! I’ll haven’t pick one up if I can’t find it. Thank you!

Thank you for that post, that sounds like a workable solution. Now to find a proper cover. It’s not like I HAVE to do this right now, but I wanted to sort it out now.

Facebook member claims to have several OE available. Maybe he’ll part with one when he has a chance to look for them.
