Wobbly wiper switch
Is your wiper switch wobbly? My truck didn't have one so I bought one from LMC. I'm shocked at how wobbly it is. I checked out another at their warehouse and it's wobbly too. I looked at 2 other websites and their switches look like they come from the same suppliers. If all C10 wiper switched feel a bit loose and have play in them I won't worry about it.

Re: Wobbly wiper switch
Make sure you have the set screw in the knob on the flat part of the switch. Don't over tighten.

Re: Wobbly wiper switch
It's the post that comes out of the switch that has a fair bit of play. Attaching the knob doesn't affect it.

Re: Wobbly wiper switch
The picture above looks as though it is missing a piece. Mine has a nut that attaches the switch to the metal dash, where as the bezel/chrome piece only serves to snug up to the bezel.
