rare rear heater switch confirmation ? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Anyone confirm that this is a rear heater switch for a suburban with a rear heater mounted under the second seat. I pulled this from my 70 Chev suburban but really havent seen another to confirm if its original ..so must be rare

It is a push in to shut it off or pull out for two postions to control the fan speed of the rear heater. Anyone have or seen this style..trying to establish if it was a GM optional switch.......the rear heater housing has GM logo but I dont have the glove box to confirm if it was factory or not or dealer installed or era correct.

Looks like a match, I got this one off EBay a few years ago. I later confirmed it in an old parts book. Genuine GM parts!
