W.T.B. Power window switch - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

79Chevypickup · 01-09-2004, 11:56 PM

I own a 79Chevy pickup (surprise surprise right

)
I NEED the drivers side power window switch, badly
Does ANYONE have one OR know where to get one?
BESIDES the junk yards, been all over houston and pasadena tx and cant find this damn switch.

Thanks

it was a pretty standard switch in the GMs back then all two door cars and trucks woulda have used the same switch. I would suggest trying like pep boys or a large auto chain store and looking in the Motormite or Help section youll prolly get it new for less than $12

I will have to post the pic of it...
I went to several auto stores and they dont have it
The post design on the back is different....
or does that not matter?

If you dont find it..Let me know and Ill go scrounge around the yards here in Ft Worth for you.

Go to a advance auto or one of those similar places, they sell them. They will be in that section with all the "HELP!" products.

I put the info in for my 85, but it should be the same.

I've got the same problem... I need the driver's side window switch, and both side's power lock switches.

I have looked everywhere, all the trucks seem to have a different style of switch, or their switches are gone already... LMC wants 120 bucks for the double and 80 for the single switches. I also need some little pullstrap covers for my truck, can't find them anywhere either.

87Silvy · 01-10-2004, 03:17 AM

My local AutoZone has them in the "HELP" section.

BladeX · 01-10-2004, 03:20 AM

help section would be MTM aka Motormite.

We sell that stuff at my work.

79Chevypickup · 01-11-2004, 12:57 PM

I can only find single switch, I really need the dual...
Any suggestions?

49242

Click on the little scroll down window on the left side. Go down to Window switches.

49242 is the part # you need.

i think.

Autozone or anyone should be able to cross refrence it.
