DITTO!!! Also make sure to get a new cover with the thread cutting nuts. These "speed nuts" (what I think they're called) that fasten to the back of the trim cover cut their own threads. It's a pain to get them on but believe me you will want to place a new trim piece on there as well. Cost me like $20 for both at the dealer.

Another example of misrepresented parts on Ebay. That won't work for a 73-80 truck. The switches are different. The one shown will work on 81-86 trucks or 87s that are not TBI fuel injected (which I think are diesels and HD emissions 454s).

Get the one from the dealer.

Nice catch Joe. Also thanks for the info on the 87's. You're a regular guru for sure on these trucks.

No problem at all

Maybe somone with a 81-86 could buy it. Plus we all learn something new everyday.
