headlight switch bezel?

Hey guys I'm in need of some help. How do I screw on the headlight bezel with no threads? Do I have the nut on backwards or am I missing something? This is what I have currently. The switch came with my american autowire harness. And I think I need something like the second pic.

The peice in your hand is mounted to the metal dash. When you put the dash itself up to it it will stick out and you screw the bezel on it.
Some aftermarket dashes don't use it though.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

The one in the hand isn't mine. I found that picture on the forum. I think I need that style nut.

Only problem is that adapter may not fit the switch in your picture unless it is actually a stock type switch......
