Re: Dimmer Switch replacement-81-87

The panel lamp dimmer rheostat is usually on the headlight switch but most folks refer to the HI/LOW beam switch as the dimmer.

The headlight dimmer switch for 84 should fit the 83 column but the wipers are still in the dash on the 83 trucks.

While you can use the stalk for the later vehicles with the wipers on the column it's not exactly the right part.

The 1983 Impala is the same odd orphan critter. A fellow on the Impala boards is putting his 83 Impala back to original condition. He eventually found the oddball orphan cruise/dimmer/turn stalk on ebay from someones NOS parts stash.

Not quite 1984 and not quite 1981. Odd little critter.
