Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST
Hey Rick, you could always wire those under dash lights to their own switch. The very bottom of the dash where it angles towards the firewall is a pretty good place for switches. There may already be holes there that a toggle switch will fit into. Then you could turn them on whenever you want, without having to turn the dome light on. Just a thought...

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST
I actually have my dome light hooked to a toggle switch that is right below the key switch, On the angled part of the dash. there was already a hole there and everything lol

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST
My PO had a switch there too, along with some lights under the dash. Handy, but I took em out.

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST
There you go. I'm gonna have you beat in my 72 with the 4 marker lights and cargo light. It had a dealer add-on spotlight but that was taken out before I got it. Going to probably weld up the holes....because a super nice or NOS spotlight is one thing I can't add to the budget right now

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST
A lot of people don't like the coys because they are "played out" but I still love them....they are very smooth and just "fit" our trucks perfectly!
