Headlight Switch Recommendations

What are you guys using for a head light switch? Looking to integrate everything into one switch.

Park lights, low beam, high beam, dimmer for gauge lights, dome light. I was looking at the switch below.

or

Anyone know of any other options without paying through the rear end?

Thank you

I used one from American Autowire. I don't remember where I bought it , but it was about the same price as the ebay switch. I have used some cheaper switches in the past and they did not hold up.

Re: Headlight Switch Recommendations

Doesn't the 3 position refer to off, parking lights, head lights? Not sure if you meant low/high beams, but don't think it does that. Although a separate dimming of dome and dash lights may be nice. Does anyone know if a stock knob is easily adaptable to it?

Cheers, Jim

The three position switch would probably have the off-parking lights-low beam-high beam.

But if it's GM style, my old 80s chevy had a floor switch high/low beam. I quess either i would need to order the 4 position switch or get some clairification on the 3 position switch.
