Cargo Light

I found a cargo light switch in my junk.
Im trying to remember what years used it?
Its got the silver trim around the base and says "cargo" on it.
It is a push pull switch and the **** lights up on the end when its on.
Is it from these trucks or the older 65 66 models?

Cargo Light.............

Yes, they light up and glow bright red when they are turned on as a reminder to turn them off so as to not shine in the eyes of drivers behind you especially at night. Cargo lights were on the 1969, 70, 71, and 72 for sure. I had an example of those. Whether they were on the 67 and 68, I can't be sure, but I believe they were. Someone else will let us know before long.

What does a 1967/72 F100/350 and a 1964/65 Thunderbird have in common?

The cargo lamp used on 1967/72 F100/350 is the exact same thing as a 1964/65 Thunderbird backup lamp assy.

Same lens, lens gasket, bezel, socket with wires.

The cargo lamps mounting gasket is different: C7TZ13A790A

C7TZ15443A .. Cargo Lamp Switch / Fits: 1967/72 F100/350

C7TZ10C915A .. Instrument Panel Cargo Lamp Indicator / Includes socket w/wires, bezel, lens & bulb / Fits: 1967/72 F100/350.
